More Insights

Built in 1924 (101 years old).
Condition: This property, though built in 1924, underwent an extensive and high-quality renovation in 2014, which is 10 years ago. While the 'Excellent' criteria typically specifies renovation within 5 years, the sheer scope and luxury of the 2014 remodel, as detailed in the listing and confirmed by images, elevate its condition. The kitchen boasts custom cabinetry, granite counters, and high-end appliances (Wolf, Bosch, Miele, LG, Izzo espresso machine), indicating top-tier quality. The bathrooms are described as 'spa-like' with heated floors, dual shower heads, a spa tub, glass-enclosed showers, Toto Washlet, and marble mosaic floors, all appearing pristine and modern in the images. Furthermore, major systems like electrical, plumbing, AC, and the water heater were upgraded, and new flooring (hardwood, carpet) and windows were installed. This comprehensive renovation ensures all components are virtually new, meet current quality standards, and show no deferred maintenance or significant physical depreciation, aligning with the spirit of an 'Excellent' rating.
