Condition Rating
Good

This exceptional late mid-century modern home, built in 1972, presents as move-in ready with high-quality features and meticulous maintenance. The 'chef's kitchen' boasts top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances, modern cabinetry, and stone countertops, suggesting a significant renovation within the last 5-15 years. While the custom ceiling mural is a unique stylistic choice, the overall kitchen functionality and condition are excellent. The primary suite includes two separate bathrooms, implying luxury, and the general interior features hardwood floors, wood ceilings, recessed lighting, and modern ceiling fans, all in very good condition. The property's age (52 years) prevents an 'Excellent' rating as it's not newly built or extensively renovated within the last 5 years to be virtually new in all aspects, but the evident updates and superior upkeep align perfectly with the 'Good' criteria for a well-maintained home with updated systems and minimal wear and tear.
