More Insights

Built in 1977 (49 years old).
Condition: Built in 1977, the property is 47 years old. However, unit 7449 has been 'freshly updated and remodeled' with new carpet, fresh paint, and updated kitchen counters and painted cabinets. Crucially, both units feature brand-new HVAC systems installed in 2017 and 2018, which are major system updates within the last 5-15 years. While some elements like the bathroom fixtures, kitchen lighting, and popcorn ceilings are dated, the significant recent updates to a major system and the cosmetic refresh of one unit make it move-in ready and well-maintained, aligning with a 'Good' condition score.

Cons
