Condition Rating
Good

Despite being built in 1913, this property has undergone significant and thoughtful modern updates, bringing it to a 'move-in ready' condition. The kitchen features modern white shaker-style cabinets, stainless steel appliances, and clean white countertops, appearing recently updated. The visible portion of the bathroom shows modern subway tiling and updated fixtures, consistent with a 'partially renovated' status. Key system upgrades like a foundation retrofit, Nest thermostat, and tankless water heater further enhance its condition and functionality. The original hardwood floors are well-maintained, and the overall aesthetic is fresh and appealing. While not a brand-new build or a full renovation within the last five years, the extensive updates place it firmly in the 'Good' category, requiring no immediate renovations.
