More Insights
Built in 1975 (50 years old).
Condition: Despite being built in 1975, this property has undergone extensive and high-quality renovations, bringing it to a virtually new condition. The kitchen features modern flat-panel cabinetry, light countertops, subway tile backsplash, and high-end Bosch stainless steel appliances (stove, vent hood, dishwasher). The bathroom is equally impressive with a full remodel, including subway tile, a modern vanity with a vessel sink, contemporary fixtures, and a modern in-unit washer/dryer. The unit boasts refinished softwood floors, 14’ high ceilings, exposed brick walls, and large industrial-style windows with automated roller shades. Modern systems like on-demand hot water and hydronic heating are also in place. The overall aesthetic is very current, clean, and move-in ready, indicating minimal physical depreciation and meeting current quality standards. The building itself has also seen recent upgrades like a roof replacement and seismic retrofit, further supporting an 'excellent' condition.
