Condition: Despite being built in 1986, the property has undergone an extensive and recent remodel, as stated in the description and clearly visible in the images. The kitchen features new white shaker cabinets, stainless steel appliances, modern countertops, and stylish backsplashes. All bathrooms are fully updated with contemporary vanities, fixtures, and tiling. New light-colored engineered wood flooring is consistent throughout, and all visible components appear new or virtually new, reflecting current quality standards with no signs of wear or deferred maintenance. This aligns perfectly with the 'extensively renovated within 5 years' criteria for an 'excellent' rating.
