More Insights

Built in 1942 (84 years old).
Condition: Built in 1942, the property shows a mix of conditions. The main kitchen has been extensively and recently updated with high-end appliances (Viking range) and modern finishes, appearing in excellent condition. The ADU also seems to be in good, updated shape. However, the listing description explicitly states 'Renovation Required' and highlights 'Age-Related System Concerns' (electrical, plumbing, HVAC, roof) and 'Potential for Inconsistent Design.' This indicates that while key areas are updated, the overall property, particularly its core systems and other living spaces (like the main living room with its older stone fireplace and windows), requires more than minor updates to bring it to modern standards and achieve a cohesive design. It's functional and livable but needs significant investment to 'transform' it, aligning with the 'Fair' category's need for updates beyond minor, but not yet 'substantial repairs' for safety/structural integrity.
