More Insights
Built in 1967 (58 years old).
Condition: The property has been 'NEWLY REMODELED' with 'BRAND NEW SAMSUNG APPLIANCES' as stated in the description, which is evident in the kitchen with modern white shaker cabinets, new countertops, and flooring. The main living areas also feature new, light grey wood-look laminate flooring and fresh paint, making the unit move-in ready. However, the bathrooms, while clean and functional with updated fixtures, retain older tiled countertops, indicating they were not fully renovated to the same modern standard as the kitchen. The building itself was constructed in 1967, and some common areas (like the gym) show their age, preventing an 'Excellent' rating. Overall, the unit is in very good, updated condition, but not every component is brand new or ultra-modern.
