MVC - Razor Edit and View mode implementation on Model(s) and Controller(s)

I have these different Razor views on my project:

• For editing: Image 1
• For view only mode: Image 2
  What I want:
• Use only one View file Edit.cshtml for displaying or editing the models.
  What I have:
• At the moment, I have 2 separate methods and views for editing/displaying the model.
  What I could do (probably):
• Use one view for both, and conditionally display what I want/need in edit/display mode.
• But I've read that programmatically adding conditions of this kind on Razor, is not the best approach/practice.

So:
What can I do? How have you tackled this problem?
