Condition Rating
Good
This 1962 mid-century home has undergone significant and thoughtful renovations, particularly in the kitchen, which features modern black granite countertops, a stylish green subway tile backsplash, and stainless steel appliances. The replacement of windows and sliders with dual-pane glass, along with the addition of a leased solar system, indicates substantial updates to major systems. While the bathrooms are clean and functional, they retain an older aesthetic with dated vanities and tile, preventing an 'Excellent' rating. However, the overall property is well-maintained, move-in ready, and benefits from key modern upgrades, aligning with a 'Good' condition score.
