More Insights

Built in 1924 (102 years old).
Condition: This 1924 Craftsman home is exceptionally well-maintained and features a blend of updated and original elements. The kitchen has updated white cabinetry, granite countertops, and a mix of stainless steel appliances, appearing functional and in good condition, though not brand new. Flooring throughout includes rich hardwood and clean carpeting. However, the bathrooms show a significant range in renovation age; while some are very recently and stylishly updated (e.g., the bathroom with the black clawfoot tub and modern vanity, or the stone-tiled shower), at least one bathroom (peach-tiled with pedestal sink) is notably dated, likely original or from a much older renovation. The property's age (100 years) and the explicit mention in the MLS analysis of potential older infrastructure (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) requiring modernization, combined with the inconsistent renovation levels in key areas like bathrooms, place it in the 'Fair' category. It is aged but maintained, with functional components that show signs of being outdated in some areas, requiring minor updates or repairs to achieve a consistent modern standard throughout.
