More Insights

Built in 1923 (102 years old).
Condition: The unit, located in a historic 1923 building, has been updated and is move-in ready. The kitchen features modern stainless steel appliances and stone countertops, though the wood cabinet style appears to be from a renovation approximately 10-15 years ago rather than brand new. Newer wood-look flooring is present throughout, and light fixtures are updated. While the building is old, the unit itself shows signs of a significant renovation within the last 5-15 years, aligning with 'Good' condition criteria. The lack of a modern cooling system is noted but does not detract enough from the overall updated state to lower the score.
