Seems like such a weird thing, but youre right 4 years of use if its never been cleaned its going to need it.

I think the best guideline is whether or not you would feel comfortable renting the place to someone else in the condition your tenants leave the property.
A few marks on the wall etc is fine and most people wouldn't have an issue moving in to a place that isn't 100% perfect. An oven that is filthy is a different story.
You also have 10 days to return the deposit, so you can make sure you get invoices or quotes for any damage before giving your tenants the remainder.
