More Insights
Built in 1947 (79 years old).
Condition: Despite being built in 1947, this property has undergone extensive, high-quality renovations, making it move-in ready. The kitchen features classic white cabinetry, marble countertops, and modern stainless steel appliances, all in excellent condition. Bathrooms are similarly updated with elegant vanities, marble surfaces, and contemporary fixtures, including a large soaking tub and a glass-enclosed shower. Rich wood floors, updated light fixtures, and meticulous maintenance throughout the home and gardens contribute to its very good condition. While the style is more classic than ultra-modern, all visible components are well-maintained and functional, aligning with a property extensively renovated within the last 5-15 years.
