More Insights
Built in 1970 (55 years old).
Condition: This condo, built in 1970, has undergone significant and recent renovations, making it move-in ready. The kitchen features updated granite countertops and newer white cabinets, complemented by white appliances that appear functional and clean. The bathrooms are described as 'fully renovated' and visually confirm modern fixtures, vanities, and flooring. The property benefits from tile and laminate wood flooring throughout, eliminating old carpets. While the wall A/C and white appliances prevent an 'excellent' rating, the extensive updates to key areas like the kitchen and bathrooms, along with overall good maintenance, align well with the 'good' condition criteria, indicating no immediate renovations are required.
