More Insights

Built in 1959 (67 years old).
Condition: The property features a beautifully remodeled main house with a modern, high-quality kitchen (stainless steel appliances, large island, rustic brick backsplash) and updated bathrooms (stone tile, modern vanities). The guest suite, added in 2016, is also in excellent, modern condition with a kitchenette and mini-split AC. The barn cabana is similarly updated. Flooring throughout is modern hardwood/laminate. While the original structure dates to 1959, the extensive renovations make it move-in ready with minimal wear. However, the main house lacks central air conditioning, which is noted as a weakness, preventing an 'Excellent' rating despite the high quality of the recent updates.
