More Insights

Built in 1913 (113 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1913, has undergone significant recent renovations, making it largely move-in ready. The bathroom is newly updated with modern fixtures, stylish tiling, and a contemporary vanity. Living areas feature new hardwood and laminate flooring, fresh paint, and recessed lighting. While the kitchen is functional and well-maintained, its cabinet style, countertops, and backsplash appear somewhat dated, likely from a renovation 15-25 years ago. The overall condition reflects extensive updates within the last 5-15 years, with some components showing more age, fitting the 'Good' category. The 'as-is' sale condition suggests potential for older underlying systems or minor deferred maintenance not visible in the images.
