Despite the 1968 build date, the property has undergone extensive recent renovations that meet the 'Excellent' criteria. Key updates include a fully modernized kitchen with contemporary cabinetry and appliances, remodeled bathrooms, and significant system upgrades including a new heat pump with AC and a new 220-amp electrical panel. The addition of a new composite deck, new fencing, and fresh exterior paint ensures the home is in mint, move-in condition with no immediate maintenance required.
The bright lower level features a large rec room and a bedroom with a remodeled ensuite, offering excellent potential for a Mother-in-Law suite or rental income with a separate entrance feel.
Significant high-value updates have been completed, including a new heat pump with air conditioning, an updated 220-amp electrical panel with EV charging, and a new deck and fence.
