More Insights
Built in 1954 (72 years old).
Condition: Despite being built in 1954, the property has undergone extensive recent renovations, including a remodeled open-concept kitchen with modern gray cabinets, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and updated main bathrooms with contemporary vanities and tiling. The refurbished original redwood floors and fresh paint contribute to a move-in ready condition. However, the presence of a wall heater (lack of central HVAC) and the 'unknown permits' for the attached studio/den and two bathrooms prevent an 'Excellent' rating, as these represent potential future issues or older systems.
