More Insights

Built in 1981 (44 years old).
Condition: Built in 1981, this condo has undergone significant modernization, particularly in the bathrooms which feature contemporary vanities, fixtures, and subway tile surrounds, appearing to be updated within the last 5-15 years. The kitchen boasts stainless steel appliances and black granite countertops, though the cabinet style and unique mosaic backsplash are a specific aesthetic choice. Updated laminate wood and tile flooring are present throughout, making the unit move-in ready with no immediate renovations required. While the popcorn ceilings and the distinct kitchen backsplash prevent an 'Excellent' rating, the overall condition and recent updates to key areas align with a 'Good' score.
