Condition Rating
Fair
The property, built in 1982, is clean and appears well-maintained, but the interior finishes are largely dated. The kitchen features older flat-panel cabinets, laminate-style countertops, and parquet flooring, despite having some newer stainless steel appliances. The bathroom has a dated vanity, countertop, light fixture, and shower tile. Carpets in the living areas and bedroom show some wear. While functional, these areas require significant updates to meet current aesthetic and quality standards, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria.
