Property is move-in ready.
The property is in move-in ready condition and reflects high-end maintenance and selective modern updates. While built in 1980, the home features a chef's kitchen with premium stainless steel appliances and stone countertops, along with at least one newly renovated bathroom. The grand architectural elements, such as the spiral staircase, beamed ceilings, and stone flooring, are well-preserved. It falls into the 'good' category rather than 'excellent' because it is not a brand-new construction or a total contemporary gut-renovation, but it remains a luxury residence with no immediate repairs required.
