More Insights
Built in 1925 (101 years old).
Condition: Despite being built in 1925, this property has undergone an extensive and high-quality renovation, bringing it to 'virtually new' condition. The MLS description explicitly states 'newly updated,' highlighting a 'new central HVAC system,' 'new roof,' 'upgraded electrical panel,' 'EV charger,' and 'tankless hotwater heater.' The images confirm a fully modernized kitchen with new stainless steel appliances, custom white shaker cabinets, white quartz-like countertops, a farmhouse sink, and modern tile flooring. Both bathrooms are completely renovated with contemporary fixtures, stylish vanities, modern tile work (including a black-framed shower enclosure in one), and appear brand new. Original hardwood floors have been refinished, and new carpet is present in the upstairs area. All components meet current quality standards with no visible deferred maintenance, aligning perfectly with the 'Excellent' score criteria for a property extensively renovated within the last 5 years.
