Condition Rating
Good
The property, built in 1972, has undergone a significant interior renovation, evident in the modern kitchen with updated cabinets, white countertops, subway tile backsplash, and contemporary black appliances. The unit features recessed lighting and new-looking carpet and LVP/laminate flooring, making it move-in ready with no immediate renovations required. While the building itself is older, the unit's interior updates appear to be within the last 5-15 years. The primary drawback preventing an 'excellent' score is the presence of a window AC unit instead of central air conditioning, which is a less desirable cooling system.

Cons
High Monthly Association Fee: The $595.0 monthly association fee is substantial for a 1-bedroom unit, impacting overall affordability and carrying costs.
