Condition Rating
Fair
Built in 1925, this condo is well-maintained with fresh paint and decent laminate flooring throughout. The kitchen features a mix of newer stainless steel appliances (refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave) but retains older, dated elements such as the speckled granite-look countertops, light wood cabinets, and an older white gas range. The bathroom is clean and functional but clearly outdated with classic white subway and hexagonal tiles, a pedestal sink, and dated light fixtures. While move-in ready, both the kitchen and bathroom would benefit from significant cosmetic updates to align with modern styles and features.
