Despite the 1926 build date, the property has undergone a comprehensive recent renovation (likely <5 years). The kitchen is fully modernized with white shaker cabinets, subway tile, farmhouse sink, and stainless steel appliances. The interior features updated flooring, fresh paint, and well-maintained systems, meeting the criteria for mint condition with no immediate maintenance required.

The property includes a functional bonus space at the rear, offering valuable flexibility for a home office, creative studio, or gym to suit modern lifestyle needs.
Situated in the sought-after Upper Dimond area, the home offers excellent proximity to popular dining in the Laurel District and outdoor recreation at Dimond and Joaquin Miller Parks.
With only one bathroom serving two bedrooms and a bonus space, the layout may present challenges for households requiring more privacy or convenience.
At just over 1,000 square feet, the interior living space is relatively small, which may limit appeal for buyers seeking more expansive indoor areas.
