Back to pre-construction pricing!
Have the mechanicals ever been updated?
$400 range! (Newer, as well as microhood; same fridge and dw as ’18) Kitchen is otherwise much improved since ’18.
Primary bath is soooo much better–you have to look at the ’18 pix–#14!!
Developer made so many strange choices–second sink by the living room (the pass through is about bringing in some light, but still odd)? Weird pass through on the dining room side, too (is that a wet wall? probably)? Fireplace basically in the walkway next to the dining? The original primary bath (bad enough to mention twice!)?
Current owners installed the bar basically in front of a window–but why did developer put the window on that side of the notch? If not doing a double, push to the left??
301 redid a lot of those issues, and produced a less family friendly unit, but one I think looks a lot better for $1m:

Hard for me to look past the exterior, which resembles an airport control tower. Too many of these odd looking buildings are being built around my old neighborhood, which was already invaded by 4 plus ones in the 60’s. Soon all the charm will be gone.
“Developer made so many strange choices–second sink by the living room (the pass through is about bringing in some light, but still odd)?”
There’s so much wasted space in the living/dining rooms. It’s just one big room, really.
