More Insights
Built in 1929 (97 years old).
Condition: This property is move-in ready with recent cosmetic updates like new carpet and fresh paint throughout. The main kitchen features stainless steel appliances and granite countertops, while the main bathroom includes a jacuzzi tub, indicating functional updates. However, the style of the wood cabinetry and granite in the main kitchen, along with the bathroom vanity and tile, suggests these renovations were likely completed 10-15 years ago rather than being brand new. The in-law studio's kitchenette and bathroom are functional but basic and also appear to be from an older renovation. The home is well-maintained but does not reflect a full, recent, high-end renovation, aligning with the 'Good' condition criteria.
