Condition Rating
Good
This 1936-built property has undergone significant restoration, as highlighted in the description and evidenced by the images. The kitchen features high-end, professional-grade stainless steel appliances (Sub-Zero style refrigerator, range, double ovens), traditional white cabinetry, wood countertops, and a farmhouse sink, all in excellent condition and a classic, timeless style. The bathrooms are extensively updated with modern fixtures, marble countertops, subway and patterned tiles, glass shower enclosures, and freestanding tubs, presenting a luxurious and contemporary feel. Hardwood floors are prevalent throughout the main living areas and bedrooms, appearing well-maintained. While the property retains its classic 1930s architectural charm, the critical areas like the kitchen and bathrooms have been renovated to a high standard, making it move-in ready with no immediate renovation required. The age of the original structure (1936) places it outside the 'within 10 years' for 'Excellent' without a full recent renovation date specified, but the visible updates and overall condition align perfectly with the 'Good' criteria of being extensively renovated within 5 to 15 years and having well-maintained systems with minimal wear and tear.
