Despite being built in 1964, this property has undergone extensive and high-quality renovations, particularly evident in the kitchen and bathrooms. The kitchen features modern stainless steel appliances, a farmhouse sink, marble-look quartz countertops, and contemporary cabinetry, along with recessed lighting. Bathrooms are equally updated with modern vanities, fixtures, and tiling. The flooring throughout the main living areas appears to be new LVP or engineered wood, and light fixtures are stylish and current. The description explicitly states 'remodeled kitchen' and 'updates throughout,' aligning with the 'extensively renovated within 5 years' criteria for an excellent score. The property presents as virtually new in its key living spaces with no deferred maintenance.
