More Insights
Built in 1940 (85 years old).
Condition: Despite being built in 1940, this property has undergone extensive and recent renovations, bringing it to an excellent condition. The kitchen features a modern custom design with a farm sink, butcher block countertops, and contemporary appliances. Both bathrooms have been nicely updated with new vanities and custom tiling, appearing virtually new. Key systems like the roof (3 years old), AC/Heat split, and electrical have been upgraded, and Tesla solar panels add to its modern appeal. The laminate flooring throughout is consistent and new, contributing to a move-in ready state with no deferred maintenance in the main living areas.
