Condition Rating
Fair
Built in 1922, this property shows its age and requires updates. While the kitchen features stainless steel appliances and some laminate flooring appears newer, the dark wood cabinets and speckled granite countertops suggest a renovation from 10-15+ years ago. One bedroom has very old-looking vinyl flooring, and the presence of window AC units indicates a lack of central HVAC. One bathroom has more modern tiling, while the other appears older but functional. The listing description itself notes the need to 'add your special touch' and the property analysis highlights 'Requires Significant Updates' and 'Advanced Age of Structure'. It is functional but needs minor to moderate updates to meet current standards.
