More Insights
Built in 1928 (98 years old).
Condition: Despite being built in 1928, the property has undergone thoughtful and recent updates, particularly in the kitchen and bathrooms. The kitchen features modern white cabinetry, black countertops, subway tile backsplash, and stainless steel appliances. Both bathrooms are updated with modern vanities, fixtures, and tile work (one with a walk-in shower, the other a tub/shower combo). The entire interior benefits from consistent, modern laminate plank flooring and updated lighting (recessed lights, ceiling fans). A tankless water heater is also a modern upgrade. While the exterior and backyard are more basic and the original structure is old, the significant interior renovations make it move-in ready with no immediate renovation required, aligning with a 'Good' condition score.
