Property is moderate renovation needed.
The property underwent an extensive down-to-the-studs renovation in 2004, placing the last major update approximately 22 years ago, which aligns with the 'Fair' criteria (renovated 15-30 years ago). While the home is exceptionally well-maintained and move-in ready with high-quality materials like travertine flooring and custom mahogany windows, the kitchen and bathroom finishes—specifically the granite countertops and cabinetry styles—reflect the early 2000s era and are considered outdated by current luxury standards.
The residence underwent a permit-led, down-to-the-studs rebuild in 2004, delivering updated systems and high-quality materials like custom mahogany windows and travertine flooring.
