More Insights

Built in 1995 (30 years old).
Condition: Built in 1995, this condo has been extensively updated to achieve a cohesive and desirable mid-century modern/retro aesthetic, as described by its 'Elizabeth Taylor' styling. The images show a move-in ready unit with modern wood-look flooring, updated kitchen cabinets (frosted glass uppers, dark lowers), and retro-styled yet functional appliances (red Galanz refrigerator, white range). The 'sputnik chandelier' and 'retro tiled shower' are deliberate design choices, not signs of outdatedness. The property appears very well-maintained with no immediate renovation needs, aligning with the 'Good' condition criteria for properties extensively renovated within the last 5-15 years, even if the original structure is older.
