Property is move-in ready.
This 1920s cottage is in move-in ready condition with significant recent upgrades that align with the 'Good' criteria. Key improvements include a new roof and energy-efficient windows from 2023, along with all-new plumbing. The kitchen features updated stone countertops, a modern undermount sink, and shaker-style cabinetry. While the home retains historic charm like original hardwood floors and plaster walls, the major systems are well-maintained and functional. It falls short of 'Excellent' as it is not a full contemporary renovation (evidenced by older wall paneling in the laundry area and a single bathroom), but it is far superior to 'Fair' given the recent high-cost system replacements.
