Condition Rating
Good

Built in 1995, this condominium has undergone significant updates, particularly in the kitchen and bathroom, which feature white cabinets, granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances. While the kitchen's fluorescent lighting is a minor detractor, the overall aesthetic is clean and modern. Flooring (laminate, tile, and carpet) appears well-maintained, and the deck was recently rebuilt. The property is move-in ready with no immediate renovations required, aligning well with the 'Good' condition criteria for a property built over 20 years ago but extensively renovated within the last 5-15 years.
