Condition: Despite being built in 1979, this property has clearly undergone extensive, high-quality renovations within the last 5 years, aligning with the 'Excellent' criteria. The kitchen is virtually new with modern white and dark shaker cabinetry, high-end stainless steel appliances, contemporary pendant lighting, and beautiful hardwood flooring. The secondary bathroom also features very recent, stylish updates with modern vanities, hardware, and recessed lighting. While the master bathroom's style might be slightly less contemporary than the kitchen, it is impeccably maintained, featuring a large tub and glass-enclosed shower, and is in excellent condition. Throughout the home, hardwood floors, modern light fixtures, and updated finishes contribute to a luxurious and move-in ready aesthetic with no visible deferred maintenance.
