Condition: Built in 1976, this property has undergone significant 'tasteful updates' that make it move-in ready. The kitchen features modern stainless steel appliances, updated shaker-style cabinets, and solid-surface countertops, complemented by contemporary tile flooring. The bathrooms are stylishly renovated with modern vanities, fixtures, and trendy green subway tile in the shower. Hardwood floors are present in main living areas and bedrooms, and updated light fixtures are visible throughout. While the entryway's multi-colored marble tile is a specific, somewhat dated style, it doesn't detract from the overall updated feel. The property's age suggests some major systems might be older, but the visible components reflect an extensive renovation likely within the last 5-15 years, aligning with a 'Good' condition score.
