More Insights
Built in 1925 (101 years old).
Condition: This property, originally built in 1925, has undergone extensive and recent renovations, including new plumbing, electrical systems, water heater, designer stucco, and a PPA Solar System. The interior features new tile flooring, fresh paint, and updated, functional kitchen and bathroom fixtures. While these significant upgrades make the home move-in ready and address the age of the core structure, the reliance on wall heaters and window AC units instead of central HVAC, along with the basic style of the kitchen and bathroom, prevents it from achieving an 'Excellent' rating.
