More Insights

Built in 1989 (37 years old).
Condition: This condo, built in 1989, presents as move-in ready with several key updates. The main level features LVP flooring and updated recessed lighting, which are modern and well-maintained. The kitchen boasts granite countertops, painted wood cabinetry, and functional white appliances, which, while not top-of-the-line stainless steel, are clean and in good working order. The bathroom is also clean and functional, though the vanity countertop, mirror, and light fixture show a slightly more dated style compared to the rest of the living areas. Overall, the property has been well-maintained and updated sufficiently within the last 5-15 years in key areas to be considered 'Good', requiring no immediate renovations, even if some aesthetic preferences might lead a buyer to consider future minor cosmetic changes.
