Condition Rating
Fair
The property, built in 1959, has received recent cosmetic updates such as fresh paint and new carpet, and includes a modern solar energy system. However, the kitchen and bathrooms are significantly outdated with original-style or very old oak cabinets, laminate countertops, older white appliances, dated linoleum flooring, and older fixtures. While functional, these key areas require substantial renovation to meet current quality and style standards. The underlying major systems are also noted as potentially original or outdated, suggesting future investment will be needed.
