Built in 1988 (38 years old).
Condition: This penthouse unit, built in 1988, is in good condition. Both bathrooms have been tastefully and recently remodeled with modern fixtures, vanities, and tile work, aligning with current quality standards. The kitchen features stainless steel appliances and granite countertops, which are functional and well-maintained, though the style of the cabinets and granite may not be considered cutting-edge modern. Dark hardwood floors are present throughout the main living areas and bedrooms, and the unit includes in-unit laundry with modern appliances. While the building itself is older, the significant updates to the bathrooms and overall well-maintained interior make it move-in ready with no immediate renovations required.

Cons

High Association Fee: The monthly association fee of $560.0 is relatively high and could be a significant ongoing cost for potential buyers.
Potential for Dated Kitchen: While bathrooms are remodeled, the description does not explicitly state a remodeled kitchen, only mentioning a dining area open to the kitchen with a countertop bar, suggesting it might not be as updated as other areas.
Age of Building & Systems: Built in 1988, the property's age means some original building systems (e.g., HVAC, plumbing, electrical) may be nearing the end of their lifespan or could require future updates beyond the noted bathroom remodels.
