Condition Rating
Fair
Built in 1993, this condominium is 31 years old. The kitchen features dated white appliances, laminate countertops, and older cabinets, along with linoleum flooring. The bathroom also shows its age with a basic vanity, older fixtures, and standard tile/linoleum. While the property appears clean and functional, the kitchen and bathroom are significantly outdated and would require minor to moderate updates to meet current aesthetic standards. The carpets and light fixtures are also generic and consistent with the property's age, indicating no major renovations since construction or an older renovation (15-30 years ago).
