Condition Rating
Good

The property, built in 1950, presents a 'move-in ready' interior with a recently and stylishly renovated kitchen featuring modern white and wood-grain cabinetry, white countertops, stainless steel appliances, and recessed lighting. The visible flooring throughout the main living areas and bedrooms is a consistent, light wood-grain, appearing new or very well-maintained. Light fixtures are updated with recessed lighting and modern ceiling fans. However, the property analysis explicitly notes a 'Lack of Central HVAC/Modern Systems' and a 'Limited Bathroom Count' (1.5 baths for 3 bedrooms), which are significant functional drawbacks preventing an 'Excellent' rating. While the aesthetic updates are strong, the absence of a modern central HVAC system and the lower bathroom count indicate that not all major systems and features meet current top-tier quality standards, placing it firmly in the 'Good' category.

Cons

Limited Bathroom Count: The property features 1.5 bathrooms for three bedrooms, which may be considered insufficient by modern buyer standards and compared to many updated homes in the area.
