While built in 1977, the unit features a comprehensive renovation likely performed 10-15 years ago. The kitchen and bathroom are updated with granite countertops and shaker-style cabinetry, and the living areas feature modern laminate flooring and French doors. It is well-maintained and move-in ready, though black appliances and wall heaters reflect a slightly older update cycle.
