Condition Rating
Good
Built in 2009, this condominium is 15 years old and presents as move-in ready with a modern industrial aesthetic. The kitchen features contemporary cabinets, black countertops, and stainless steel appliances, all appearing well-maintained. The bathroom is equally modern with a sleek vanity and glass-enclosed shower. Flooring throughout is a mix of wood-look and modern tile, showing minimal wear. While not newly built or extensively renovated within the last 5 years, its age and current condition, coupled with functional and stylish components, align perfectly with the 'Good' rating.
