Condition Rating
Good

The property, built in 1981, has undergone significant and recent updates, making it move-in ready. The kitchen features modern quartz countertops, a stylish subway tile backsplash, recessed lighting, and a new dishwasher. New laminate flooring extends throughout the living areas, and a new water heater has been installed. While the refrigerator and range appear to be older white appliances, and the bathroom isn't pictured, the description highlights in-unit laundry and a new water heater, suggesting it's also in good, updated condition. The overall aesthetic is clean, contemporary, and well-maintained, aligning with the 'Good' score criteria for a property extensively renovated within the last 5-15 years.
