This townhome, built in 1970, has undergone significant and recent updates, making it move-in ready. The kitchen features modern cherry-toned cabinetry, dark countertops, a stylish subway tile backsplash, and a suite of matching black appliances, complemented by recessed lighting. The main living areas boast gleaming hardwood floors and fresh paint, while the upstairs bedrooms have brand new plush carpeting. The bathroom is clean and functional with a white vanity and updated shower, though the fluorescent light fixture is a bit dated. The presence of a popcorn ceiling in one bedroom also indicates that not every original detail was fully modernized. Overall, the property is very well-maintained with minimal wear and tear, aligning with a substantial renovation within the last 5-15 years, placing it firmly in the 'Good' category.
