Condition Rating
Good
This 1945-built property has undergone significant and tasteful renovations, making it move-in ready. The kitchen features modern white shaker cabinets, dark countertops, black hardware, a black sink, and newer stainless steel appliances. The bathroom is also fully refreshed with subway tile, a modern vanity, and updated fixtures. New hardwood-style laminate flooring, fresh paint, and recessed lighting throughout the main living areas contribute to a contemporary feel. While not a brand-new construction or a full, top-to-bottom renovation of all major systems, the visible updates are recent and of high quality, aligning with the 'Good' criteria for a well-maintained home with recent updates.

Recent Price Adjustment: Benefits from a significant price reduction from its original listing, enhancing its market competitiveness and offering potential value to buyers.
Cons
Age of Property: Constructed in 1945, the property's age may imply older infrastructure or potential for age-related maintenance concerns compared to newer constructions.
