More Insights
Built in 1924 (102 years old).
Condition: Despite being built in 1924, the property has undergone significant and recent renovations, particularly in both kitchens and the back unit's bathroom, which feature modern cabinets, countertops, and appliances. New wood-look laminate flooring is present in many areas, and mini-split AC units have been installed in the back unit. While the main unit's bathroom has an older tile style, it appears clean and well-maintained. The property is described as 'move-in ready' and 'well-maintained,' indicating that major systems are functional and within expected lifespans, aligning with the 'Good' condition criteria for a property extensively renovated within the last 5-15 years.

Cons
MLS Listing Discrepancy: Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 7, other record bedroom count = 5.
Age of Property: Built in 1924, the property's age may imply potential for aging infrastructure (e.g., plumbing, electrical systems, roof) that could require significant capital expenditures in the future, despite current maintenance.
Lack of Modern Amenities Detail: The description does not specify modern upgrades or amenities such as central air conditioning, energy-efficient windows, or smart home technology, which might be expected by some buyers in this market segment.
Potential for Higher Operating Costs: Older properties, even when well-maintained, can inherently lead to higher utility bills and ongoing maintenance expenses compared to newer, more energy-efficient constructions.
