BP, Pulse: Given your age this is quite acceptable.

Controversial: The european and american as well as other specialty guildelines differ on this. It depends on other conditions/risk factors. If there is diabetes , coronary artery disease or kidney disease i would be somewhat more aggressive in treating. If these conditions are absent then continue with lifestyle modifcations , low salt diet, exercise , alcohol in moderation , no smoking etc.
