Property is extensive renovation needed.
Built in 1964 with no evidence of significant renovations in the last 30+ years. The interior features highly dated elements including popcorn ceilings, louvered closet doors, and worn carpeting that extends into the bathroom vanity area. The kitchen and bathrooms are original or near-original style and require a full rehab to meet modern standards.

The unit includes three gated assigned parking spaces, a rare and highly valuable asset for a two-bedroom condominium in this high-density area.
With 1,253 square feet of living space, the floor plan features a primary suite with a walk-in closet and central A/C, providing a bright and functional environment.
The building lacks in-unit laundry hookups, requiring residents to use shared facilities located on each level, which may be a drawback for modern buyers.
The property has an unusually high number of days on market, which can create a negative perception regarding its value or condition despite recent price reductions.
