More Insights

Built in 1993 (32 years old).
Condition: Built in 1993, this condo has undergone significant recent cosmetic updates, including 'brand-new flooring' and 'sleek upgraded countertops' as stated in the description. The bathroom image confirms a modern, recently updated vanity, mirror, and light fixture, contributing to a fresh and appealing aesthetic. The property is move-in ready with no immediate renovations required. However, without full visibility of kitchen appliances and confirmation of the age and condition of all major systems (e.g., HVAC, water heater), it doesn't quite meet the 'all components new or virtually new' standard for an 'Excellent' rating, which typically implies a full, comprehensive renovation beyond cosmetic updates.
