Condition Rating
Excellent

Despite being built in 1979, this property has undergone extensive and recent renovations, aligning with the 'extensively renovated within 5 years' criteria for an excellent rating. The description highlights a 'remodeled kitchen with modern finishes, stainless steel appliances,' 'new Milgard windows,' 'fresh interior paint,' and 'new LED recessed lights.' Images confirm a contemporary, clean aesthetic in the living areas, kitchen (visible glimpse), and a half-bath with a modern vessel sink and vanity. The oak hardwood floors are in excellent condition. While the underlying structure is older and central AC is not mentioned, the visible and described upgrades present a property that is virtually new in its key living spaces and move-in ready with no deferred maintenance.
