More Insights

Built in 1965 (61 years old).
Condition: Despite being built in 1965, the property has undergone a full, high-end renovation by a renowned designer, as explicitly stated in the description and evidenced by the images. The gourmet kitchen features new, top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances, modern white shaker cabinetry, subway tile backsplash, and a farmhouse sink. Both bathrooms are luxurious with contemporary vanities, modern fixtures, stylish tiling (subway tile with accent bands), and glass-enclosed showers. Throughout the home, there are pristine dark hardwood floors, fresh paint, modern lighting (recessed lights, stylish pendants, sconces), and custom built-ins. All components appear new or virtually new, meeting current quality standards with no visible deferred maintenance, making it move-in ready and reflecting an 'excellent' condition.
