More Insights
Built in 1949 (76 years old).
Condition: This property is move-in ready and has undergone a significant remodel. The kitchen features updated stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and well-maintained wood cabinetry, though the mosaic backsplash style might be considered slightly dated by some. The visible bathroom is tastefully updated with modern fixtures, a glass-enclosed shower, and stylish tiling. Throughout the home, there is consistent dark wood flooring, crown molding, and recessed lighting, indicating a comprehensive renovation. While the original build year is 1949, the extensive updates appear to be within the last 5-15 years, aligning with the 'Good' condition criteria for a well-maintained, recently renovated home.
