More Insights
Built in 1959 (67 years old).
Condition: Despite being built in 1959, this property has undergone an extensive, high-end renovation, making it virtually new. The description highlights a 'newly upgraded home' with a 'remodeled chef's kitchen' featuring custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, designer backsplash, and brand-new stainless steel appliances. Bathrooms are also 'remodeled with European tiles, new vanities, LED mirrors, and premium fixtures.' Major systems like plumbing (new copper), electrical (updated with LED recessed lighting), windows (double pane), and HVAC (central A/C plus dedicated unit in master) have all been replaced or upgraded. The luxurious SPC flooring throughout, new interior/patio doors, and a permitted master retreat with a new roof further solidify its 'excellent' condition, indicating no deferred maintenance and minimal physical depreciation.
