Condition Rating
Good
Built in 1961, this home benefits from a recently and fully renovated kitchen featuring modern dark cabinetry, white quartz countertops, mosaic backsplash, and stainless steel appliances, which are all in excellent condition. The property also boasts a newer roof and dual-pane windows, contributing to its 'move-in ready' status. While the overall property is meticulously cared for, some bathrooms exhibit dated styles and finishes, and certain light fixtures are older, indicating that not all areas have undergone the same extensive modern renovation as the kitchen. Despite these minor inconsistencies, the significant updates and well-maintained state qualify it as 'Good'.
