More Insights
Built in 1962 (63 years old).
Condition: Despite being built in 1962, the property has undergone an extensive and high-quality renovation, as evidenced by the 'chic, updated interiors' and 'top-of-the-line appliances' mentioned in the description, and clearly visible in the images. The kitchen features sleek, modern cabinetry, high-end stainless steel appliances, contemporary lighting, and pristine countertops. The bathrooms are equally modern with floating vanities, vessel sinks, and stylish stone tiling. Throughout the home, dark hardwood floors, modern light fixtures, and fresh finishes contribute to a virtually new and sophisticated aesthetic, meeting current quality standards with no visible deferred maintenance.
