More Insights
Built in 1956 (69 years old).
Condition: Built in 1956, this property has undergone significant and high-quality renovations, particularly in key areas. The kitchen is a standout, featuring modern white shaker cabinets, high-end Miele stainless steel appliances (double oven, cooktop, range hood), contemporary granite/quartz countertops, and a stylish mosaic tile backsplash, all complemented by recessed lighting and a skylight. The bathrooms also appear extensively updated with modern vanities, fixtures, and tiling. Throughout the main living areas, there are beautiful refinished hardwood floors and recessed lighting, creating a move-in ready and aesthetically pleasing environment. While the visible components are in excellent, virtually new condition, the property's age (1956) and the lack of explicit details regarding recent updates to all major systems (HVAC, plumbing, electrical) prevent an 'Excellent' rating, which implies all components are new or virtually new. However, the extensive and tasteful renovations make it a very strong 'Good' property.
