Condition Rating
Fair

Built in 1931, this Spanish-style home boasts a 'modern updated kitchen' and appears well-maintained with charming features like hardwood floors, high ceilings, and extensive outdoor amenities including a private spa and heated pool. However, the property's age, coupled with the lack of explicit mention of comprehensive updates to major systems (HVAC, electrical, plumbing) and the noted 'Age-Related System Concerns' and 'Lack of Modern Comforts/Smart Home Integration' in the property analysis, suggests that while functional, some major components may be outdated. The visible powder room also reflects a traditional, rather than modern, aesthetic. Therefore, it falls into the 'Fair' category, indicating it is aged but maintained through regular upkeep and occasional updates, with potential for minor updates or repairs to bring all systems and aesthetics to a contemporary standard.
