More Insights

Built in 1976 (49 years old).
Condition: This 1976-built townhome is presented as 'move-in ready' with significant recent updates including fresh paint, elegant hardwood floors, updated light fixtures, new hardware, brand-new balconies, and a new roof. While the kitchen features 'classic wood oak cabinets' and laminate countertops, it is complemented by newer stainless steel appliances and a mosaic tile backsplash, making it functional and clean. The bathroom also features older style wood cabinets, laminate countertops, and an older light fixture, but appears well-maintained. The extensive cosmetic and structural updates (roof, balconies, flooring) elevate its condition beyond 'Fair', indicating a property that has been extensively renovated within the last 5-15 years, even if the kitchen and bathroom haven't received a full, modern overhaul.

Lack of In-Unit Laundry: The property relies on a community laundry room, which may be less convenient for some buyers who prefer private in-unit laundry facilities.
Older Building Infrastructure: Built in 1976, despite recent cosmetic updates, the underlying building systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical, and potential absence of central AC) may be older and could require future maintenance or upgrades.
