More Insights

Built in 1961 (65 years old).
Condition: While the property benefits from new luxury vinyl flooring throughout and an updated bathroom with modern fixtures, the kitchen is significantly dated. It features mint green cabinets, an electric coil cooktop, an older wall oven, and a mirror backsplash, which would require substantial renovation to meet current aesthetic and functional standards. The building's age (1961) also suggests potential for older infrastructure, despite the unit's partial updates.
