More Insights

Built in 1981 (44 years old).
Condition: Built in 1981, this unit has been 'tastefully updated' as described, featuring stainless steel kitchen appliances and updated bathroom vanities with tiled showers. However, the kitchen cabinets are a traditional style, and the countertops appear to be an older laminate or solid surface, not modern stone. Bathroom light fixtures are also dated. While clean and well-maintained with newer-looking carpet, the overall aesthetic of the updates suggests they were done 15-20+ years ago, showing signs of being outdated rather than recently renovated. It is move-in ready but would require minor updates for a more contemporary feel.
