Condition Rating
Good

This custom-built log-style mountain cabin, constructed in 2004, is 20 years old, placing it at the upper end of the 'Good' category's age range. However, the property is described as 'move-in ready' and features high-quality materials and modern amenities. The gourmet kitchen boasts granite countertops, custom cabinetry, and top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances, all appearing in excellent condition in the images. Bathrooms are spa-inspired with jetted tubs, double vanities, and tiled showers, showing minimal wear. Bamboo hardwood floors are consistent throughout, and the home includes smart features like Wi-Fi and security cameras. While not newly built or extensively renovated within the last 5 years to qualify as 'Excellent,' its exceptional maintenance, quality finishes, and functional systems clearly place it above 'Fair,' requiring no immediate renovations.
