More Insights

Built in 1986 (40 years old).
Condition: Despite the building's 1986 construction, the unit has been extensively and beautifully remodeled with a sophisticated modern design, as evidenced by the description and images. The chef's kitchen features a waterfall island, high-end stainless steel appliances (including double-drawer dishwashers and a built-in microwave drawer), and striking quartz countertops with a full-height backsplash. The spa-inspired bathrooms boast a wet room concept with a freestanding tub, large walk-in shower with unique veined stone, modern black fixtures, and illuminated vanities. The property also includes engineered hardwood floors, recessed lighting, trimless LED baseboards, built-in Bluetooth speakers, smart-home features like a Nest thermostat, and an updated electric panel. All these elements indicate a very recent, high-quality renovation, meeting current standards with virtually new components and no deferred maintenance.
