Condition Rating
Good
This 1951-built home is move-in ready with significant recent updates. The description highlights new plumbing, a new mini-split AC unit, and recent room expansions, indicating major system and structural improvements. Images show updated vinyl windows and a well-maintained exterior. While the bathroom features an older vanity, tiled floor, and light fixture, it is functional, clean, and includes accessibility features. The 'DIY projects' mentioned appear to be minor cosmetic updates or finishing touches on the new additions (as seen in the cluttered room with unfinished flooring), rather than immediate critical repairs. The new major systems (plumbing, HVAC) and recent additions elevate its condition beyond 'Fair', making it a solid 'Good' despite some dated aesthetics.
