Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1957, this iconic mid-century condo is well-maintained and livable but is explicitly marketed as a 'blank canvas' requiring a full interior reimagining. While it features some functional updates like a split-system AC and a newer retro-style refrigerator, the kitchen remains very basic with older cabinetry and a dated electric range. The property shows signs of age and lacks the comprehensive renovation required for a higher rating, fitting the 'fair' criteria of being functional but outdated.
Designed by renowned architects William Krisel and Dan Palmer, this Class 1 Historic District property offers significant tax advantages via the Mills Act and permits lucrative short-term rentals.
