Condition Rating
Good

The property, built in 1988, has undergone significant updates, including a beautifully upgraded kitchen with modern white shaker cabinets, light countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a subway tile backsplash. The bathrooms, particularly the primary suite, feature contemporary finishes like marble-look tile showers, modern vanities, and updated fixtures. New carpeting upstairs and updated flooring in other areas contribute to a fresh feel. While some elements like older ceiling fans in certain rooms and the overall age of the structure prevent an 'Excellent' rating, the extensive renovations make it move-in ready with a modern aesthetic, aligning well with the 'Good' criteria of being extensively renovated within 5 to 15 years and having well-maintained systems (including central air and owned solar panels).
