Property is move-in ready.
The property is in move-in ready condition with several key updates that align with the 'good' criteria. Although built in 1973, it features an updated kitchen with granite countertops and modern stainless steel appliances, fresh interior paint, and new carpeting. The bathrooms have been updated with modern fixtures and tile work. While the cabinetry and floor tiling reflect a renovation style from approximately 10-15 years ago rather than a brand-new 'excellent' renovation, the home is well-maintained with functional major systems like central A/C and dual-pane windows.
