Condition: Built in 2010, this property is move-in ready with functional systems and minimal wear. The kitchen features stainless steel appliances and granite countertops, while bathrooms are clean and functional. However, the cabinet styles, light fixtures (e.g., fluorescent kitchen lights), and overall aesthetic in the kitchen and bathrooms reflect the original build era and are not extensively updated to current modern standards, preventing an 'excellent' rating.
