Condition Rating
Excellent

Built in 1992, this property has undergone extensive and recent high-quality renovations, particularly evident in the kitchen and bathrooms. The 'gourmet chef's kitchen' features modern gray cabinetry, stainless steel appliances (including a wine fridge and gas cooktop), and granite/quartz countertops, all appearing virtually new and meeting current quality standards. The bathrooms are equally impressive with updated vanities, modern fixtures, and luxurious elements like a jetted tub and glass-enclosed showers. Furthermore, the listing explicitly states 'Recent upgrades include a new generator, new HVAC system & a new water heater,' indicating significant investment in major systems. The overall aesthetic is contemporary with high ceilings, recessed lighting, and well-maintained flooring (hardwood and clean carpets), presenting a move-in ready home with minimal physical depreciation.
