Condition: Despite being built in 1972, this property has undergone significant and stylish interior renovations, particularly in the kitchen and primary bathroom. The kitchen features modern white shaker cabinets, quartz countertops, subway tile backsplash, and stainless steel appliances, appearing virtually new. The primary bathroom boasts a contemporary double vanity and a tiled shower/tub combo. New-looking LVP flooring extends throughout the main living areas and bedrooms, and light fixtures have been updated. While the building's age suggests underlying systems are older, the visible living spaces are move-in ready with modern aesthetics and minimal wear, indicating extensive updates within the last 5-15 years, aligning with a 'Good' condition rating.
