More Insights
Built in 2003 (22 years old).
Condition: Built in 2003, this loft is 21 years old, placing it just outside the 'Excellent' built-year range. However, the listing explicitly states '26 brand-new windows with custom shades, a fresh coat of paint, and more,' indicating significant recent updates that bring the property's condition up considerably. The kitchen features modern stainless steel appliances, contemporary flat-panel cabinetry, and light countertops, all appearing well-maintained. The bathrooms also present a clean, modern aesthetic with large format tiles and updated vanities. The light-colored hardwood flooring throughout is in excellent condition. While not a full, top-to-bottom renovation within the last 5 years, the major updates and overall pristine, move-in ready condition, coupled with modern styling, align perfectly with the 'Good' criteria: move-in ready with no immediate renovation required, well-maintained systems, and significant updated components.

Non-Traditional Bedroom Configuration: While listed as 2 beds, the description highlights 'one bedroom and multiple modular spaces,' suggesting the second sleeping area may not be a fully enclosed, traditional bedroom, which might not suit all buyer preferences.
Mixed Local School Ratings: While one elementary school has a good rating, several other nearby public middle and high schools have lower ratings, which could be a consideration for families with school-aged children.
