Condition: The property, built in 1989, is well-maintained and largely move-in ready. The kitchen has been significantly updated with modern white cabinets, solid surface countertops, white appliances, and contemporary light fixtures, suggesting a renovation within the last 5-15 years. While the bathrooms are clean and functional, the master bathroom's wood-toned vanity and mirror appear somewhat dated, and the other bathrooms are standard but not extensively modernized.

Overall, the home presents a clean, functional, and appealing interior, with the kitchen being a strong highlight, making it a 'Good' condition property that doesn't require immediate major renovations.
