More Insights

Built in 1937 (89 years old).
Condition: Despite being built in 1937, this property has undergone extensive and recent modern upgrades, bringing it to an excellent condition. Key systems like electrical (new copper wiring, 3-prong outlets, fixtures), HVAC (central forced air gas heat and AC), and water heating (Rennai Tankless) have been updated. The kitchen is remodeled with stainless steel appliances, renewed wood cabinets with soft-close hinges and glass panels, and a double sink. The master bath features a refinished antique clawfoot tub with new fixtures. Hardwood flooring, newer vinyl windows, recessed lighting, and fresh paint further enhance its appeal. The addition of a solar-heated pool/hot tub and a well-appointed, though non-conforming, ADU with granite countertops and a Jacuzzi tub, signifies a comprehensive renovation effort that meets current quality standards.
