Condition Rating
Good
The property, built in 1938, has undergone significant renovations that make it move-in ready. The kitchen features stainless steel appliances, ample cabinetry, and updated countertops, though the backsplash style suggests the renovation might be 10-15 years old rather than brand new. Bathrooms are clean and functional, with updated fixtures, but the tile work is not contemporary. Hardwood floors are well-maintained throughout most of the home. The overall condition shows good upkeep with no immediate repairs needed, aligning with the 'Good' criteria for a well-maintained property with updates within the last 5-15 years.
