More Insights

Built in 1929 (97 years old).
Condition: This 1929 Spanish home has been extensively updated, particularly the kitchen, which features top-of-the-line appliances, soapstone countertops, and a farmhouse sink, appearing virtually new. Hardwood floors throughout the living areas are well-maintained. The bathroom, while charming with classic tile and period-appropriate details, does not appear to be as recently or extensively renovated as the kitchen, showing a more vintage aesthetic. The property is move-in ready with central heat, but the absence of central air conditioning is a notable drawback. Overall, it's a well-maintained home with significant recent updates in key areas, but not every component is 'virtually new' to qualify for an 'Excellent' rating.
