Built in 1977, this condo is well-maintained and move-in ready but features several dated elements that align with the 'fair' condition category. While the living area boasts attractive vaulted wood ceilings and some laminate flooring has been installed, the kitchen remains dated with oak cabinetry and older white coil-top appliances. The bathrooms are functional but basic, and the carpeting in the living area shows visible wear. It serves as a solid, lived-in home that has had occasional updates over the decades but lacks a comprehensive modern renovation.
The property features rare and soothing lake views visible from the living area and the primary bedroom's private balcony, significantly enhancing the home's tranquility and aesthetic appeal.
With high vaulted ceilings and an upgraded kitchen, the interior offers a bright, airy, and move-in-ready atmosphere complemented by stylish laminate flooring and a cozy fireplace.
