More Insights

Built in 1984 (42 years old).
Condition: Despite being built in 1984, this condo has undergone extensive and recent renovations. The description highlights a 'brand-new kitchen' with white shaker cabinets, quartz countertops, and an oversized farmhouse sink, which is confirmed by the images showing modern, high-quality finishes and appliances. The bathroom is also 'remodeled' with updated fixtures and vanity. New windows, brand new Berber carpeting, and fresh paint throughout contribute to a virtually new interior. While the property lacks central air conditioning, the overall condition of the renovated components meets current quality standards with no deferred maintenance, justifying an 'excellent' rating for its updated state.
