More Insights

Built in 1955 (70 years old).
Condition: Built in 1955, this property has undergone significant 'refined modern updates' as described, which is evident in the provided images. The visible bathroom features a modern vanity, contemporary tiling, and fixtures, indicating a recent renovation. The living areas showcase updated hardwood-look flooring, modern light fixtures (like the spherical pendant in the living room and chandelier in the bedroom), and a fresh, clean aesthetic. The property appears move-in ready with no immediate renovation required, aligning with the 'Good' criteria. While the kitchen is not pictured, the overall impression from the available images and description suggests a property extensively renovated within the last 5-15 years. The lack of specific details on major system updates (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) and the property's original build year prevent an 'Excellent' rating, but the cosmetic and functional updates are substantial and well-executed.
