Built in 1980, this condominium shows its age in key areas. While the property benefits from updated laminate wood-look flooring and an efficient mini-split HVAC system, the kitchen and bathroom feature significantly outdated wood-grain laminate cabinets, basic white appliances, and older-style light fixtures. These areas are functional and appear well-maintained, but their style and finishes are clearly from an older era and would require minor to moderate updates to meet current aesthetic standards.
