More Insights
Built in 1974 (51 years old).
Condition: The condo, built in 1974, benefits from recent significant updates including new paint, carpet, and vinyl floors, and a newly remodeled primary bathroom, making it move-in ready. While the kitchen is clean and functional with white appliances and cabinets, it appears dated and has not undergone a full modern renovation. The mixed flooring (vinyl plank in living/bedrooms, tile in dining/kitchen) also suggests a partial rather than comprehensive update. However, the recent renovations in key areas elevate its condition beyond 'Fair', aligning with the 'Good' criteria of being move-in ready with recent updates, even if not a full, top-to-bottom renovation.
