TeardownExcellent
Property is moderate renovation needed.
The property is exceptionally clean and move-in ready, but the kitchen and bathrooms are dated, reflecting a renovation style that appears to be over 20 years old. It features older white appliances, basic flat-panel cabinetry, and Hollywood-style vanity lighting that would benefit from modern updates.
