Condition Rating
Good
Built in 1995, this condo has received significant updates including new carpet, fresh paint, stainless steel appliances, and stone counters in the kitchen, making it move-in ready. While the kitchen cabinets appear to be original to the build, they are well-maintained, and the overall aesthetic is clean and functional. The absence of bathroom images prevents a full assessment of those areas, but the described updates to other key areas align with a 'Good' condition, indicating a well-maintained property with recent improvements, though not a full, extensive renovation.
