More Insights
Built in 1979 (46 years old).
Condition: This condo, built in 1979, has undergone significant updates that make it move-in ready. The description highlights 'modern finishes' and 'hardwood floors throughout,' which are clearly visible in the images and contribute to a fresh, clean aesthetic. The kitchen features 'updated' white cabinets, granite countertops, and white built-in appliances. While the granite and white appliances are not the most current trend (suggesting an update likely 5-15 years ago rather than brand new), they are functional and well-maintained. The bathrooms, though not fully pictured, include a vanity area with what appear to be slightly older light fixtures, but the overall impression is clean. The property's systems are likely well-maintained, and the interior shows minimal wear and tear. It doesn't meet the 'excellent' criteria of being built within 10 years or extensively renovated within 5 years with all virtually new components, but it comfortably exceeds the 'fair' category which implies more outdated elements or minor repairs needed. The updates position it firmly in the 'good' category, offering a comfortable and stylish living space without immediate renovation needs.
