More Insights

Built in 1978 (48 years old).
Condition: Despite being built in 1978, this property has undergone extensive, high-end renovations, as explicitly stated in the description and clearly evidenced by the images. The kitchen is pristine with top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances (including a professional range and wine storage), modern white shaker cabinetry, quartz countertops, and a stylish gray subway tile backsplash. Bathrooms are equally impressive, featuring contemporary vanities, updated tile work (subway and penny tile), glass-enclosed showers, and modern fixtures. Wide-plank oak flooring, updated light fixtures, and overall meticulous presentation throughout the interior and exterior indicate a property that is virtually new in its finishes and condition, meeting current quality standards with no deferred maintenance.
