More Insights

Built in 1985 (41 years old).
Condition: Built in 1985, this condo has undergone significant upgrades that make it move-in ready. The kitchen features modern white shaker cabinets, stainless steel appliances, and recessed lighting. The bathroom also shows updates with a modern vanity, light fixtures, and a clean tub/shower with a glass door. A state-of-the-art AC mini-split system and in-unit full-size washer/dryer are notable modern amenities. While the speckled granite-style countertops and terracotta-colored tile flooring, though clean and well-maintained, suggest a renovation that is likely 10-15 years old rather than brand new, the overall condition is well-maintained and requires no immediate renovations, aligning with the 'Good' criteria for a property extensively renovated within the last 5 to 15 years.
