More Insights
Built in 1922 (103 years old).
Condition: The property features a recently updated kitchen with modern quartz countertops, a stylish mosaic backsplash, new stainless steel appliances (including a double oven gas range), and new vinyl plank flooring throughout the main living areas. While the house was built in 1922, these significant interior renovations make it largely move-in ready. The bathroom is clean and functional, but its gold-tone shower frame and large wall mirror suggest an older renovation, likely 15-25 years ago, rather than a brand-new update. Overall, the property has undergone substantial recent improvements in key areas, but not a full, top-to-bottom renovation, aligning with a 'Good' condition score.
