Condition: Despite being built in 1954, this property has undergone significant and tasteful updates, particularly in the kitchen and bathroom, which appear to have been renovated within the last 5-15 years. The kitchen features modern stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and updated lighting. The bathroom boasts a contemporary vanity with a vessel sink and modern fixtures. Hardwood floors are well-maintained throughout, and bedrooms include modern ceiling fans. While the property lacks central air conditioning (relying on window units and a wall heater) and the kitchen cabinets are a more traditional style, the overall condition is move-in ready with no immediate renovations required, aligning with the 'Good' criteria.
