Built in 1950 (75 years old).
Condition: Despite being built in 1950, this property has undergone extensive and tasteful renovations, making it move-in ready. The kitchen features modern white cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and light countertops, presenting a clean and functional aesthetic. Bathrooms are well-appointed with a large walk-in glass shower, a classic clawfoot tub, and contemporary tiling and fixtures. Flooring throughout, including large format tiles in living areas and clean carpeting in bedrooms, appears well-maintained. While not a brand-new construction, the significant updates align with a property extensively renovated within the last 5-15 years, ensuring major systems are functional and the home meets current quality standards. The overall condition is excellent, though the original build year and lack of specified cooling system prevent an 'Excellent' rating.
