More Insights

Built in 2005 (21 years old).
Condition: This loft, effectively built/converted in 2005, presents a highly desirable modern industrial aesthetic. The kitchen features stainless steel appliances (including a Viking range), contemporary light wood cabinetry, and a stylish backsplash, all appearing in excellent condition. The bathroom has been tastefully updated with modern fixtures, including an LED-backlit mirror and contemporary tiling. Polished concrete floors, exposed brick, and Nest-controlled AC/heat contribute to a move-in ready, well-maintained living space with minimal wear and tear. While the core conversion was 19 years ago, the visible updates and overall quality align perfectly with a 'Good' rating, bordering on 'Excellent' due to the high standard of finishes and recent updates in key areas.
