Condition Analysis
OVERALL CONDITION SCORE

The kitchen features freshly painted cabinets with new hardware, a new backsplash, a new Samsung refrigerator, and new vinyl flooring, presenting a modern and clean aesthetic. Bathrooms have been extensively updated with new vanities, sinks, faucets, mirrors, lighting, and vinyl flooring, giving them a contemporary feel. New carpet and vinyl flooring throughout, along with new lighting and blinds, contribute to a fresh condition. While the renovations are extensive and recent, the property's core structure and some major systems (e.g., the range/oven appears older) are still from 1979, preventing an 'Excellent' rating, but it comfortably meets the 'Good' criteria for a well-maintained and recently updated home.
