Strengths
Corner unit3.0 of 3.0 pts
Photos 12 and 20 show windows on two exterior sides of the unit, consistent with a corner unit. The floor plan in photo 19 does not clearly reveal window placement on multiple sides.
Natural light2.7 of 3.0 pts
Several rooms get strong daylight. Photo 10 shows a wall of tall windows flooding the room; photo 6 has large windows around the living/kitchen area; photo 9 has a window plus balcony door; photo 7 has two tall bedroom windows. Photo 14 (interior room) and photo 0 (bathroom) show no direct window, so overall good but not floor-to-ceiling throughout.
Price fit2.5 of 2.5 pts
$1,615 to $1,995 sits inside your $1,800 to $2,500 band
Construction quality1.8 of 2.5 pts
Modern apartment build with white shaker cabinets, quartz/stone-look counters, and wood-look plank flooring. Window frames appear standard aluminum/vinyl. Finishes look decent but this is typical multi-family stick-built construction rather than concrete/steel, so mid-range score.
High floor1.6 of 2.0 pts
Multiple interior photos show views from an elevated position looking down on the rooftops of neighboring buildings and across a cityscape. Photos 7, 8, 9, 11, and 12 all display elevated exterior views consistent with a unit on an upper floor (4th or higher).
Modern finishes1.6 of 2.0 pts
Open-concept living with kitchen island, white cabinetry, stainless appliances, modern pendant lighting, and neutral palettes. Clean contemporary styling throughout the renders and actual kitchen photos.
Home-office space1.0 of 1.5 pts
Photo 14 shows a separate empty room with a doorway and closet, usable as a den/second room or home office. The renders suggest an open layout otherwise, so office potential rests on this second room.
Second bathroom1.0 of 1.0 pts

Weaknesses
Little or no carpet0.0 of 1.5 pts
Photo 14 shows a fully carpeted empty room (gray wall-to-wall carpet). The renders of the living areas (6, 9, 10) and kitchen (8, 13) show wood-look plank flooring, with area rugs in the bedroom/living render (10) and bedroom (7). The bathroom (0) has wood-look flooring. So carpet is limited to the bedroom-type room shown in 14.
