Condition Rating
Fair

The property, built in 1977, has received several updates, including a recently renovated primary bathroom with a new vanity, dual sinks, and modern finishes, as well as new carpeting. However, the kitchen, while functional and clean, features Corian countertops and an older style backsplash, suggesting its last renovation was likely 15-25 years ago rather than within the last 15 years. While move-in ready, the kitchen's style and some appliances are somewhat dated, and the overall age of the home (47 years) means some underlying systems may be older, aligning with the 'Fair' category's description of an aged but maintained home with functional but outdated major components.

Recurring HOA Fees: The $281 monthly HOA fee, while covering amenities, adds a significant recurring cost to homeownership.
Staging Discrepancy: The disclosure that 'Photos are from when property was staged - home is no longer staged' indicates that the property's current presentation may differ significantly from the marketing images, potentially impacting buyer perception.
