Condition Rating
Good
The property, built in 1985, presents as move-in ready with no immediate renovations required. The kitchen and bathrooms have been extensively and stylishly updated, likely within the last 5-15 years. The kitchen features modern white shaker cabinets, stainless steel appliances, contemporary countertops, and a chic tiled backsplash with a custom range hood. The bathroom showcases a modern vanity, fixtures, and a beautifully tiled shower with a glass enclosure. While some elements like the staircase railing and a dining room ceiling fan suggest an older build, the overall condition is well-maintained with significant modern updates throughout, including flooring and paint, fitting the 'Good' criteria.
