More Insights

Built in 1918 (108 years old).
Condition: This historic home, built in 1918, has been thoughtfully renovated with modern materials, making the main residence largely move-in ready. The main kitchen features modern appliances and a butcher-block island, though the yellow tiled countertops are a dated element. The main bathroom is clean and functional, but the tile and vanity style are also somewhat dated. The ADU provides versatile living space but has more basic, older finishes and a window AC unit. Overall, the property is well-maintained with good quality hardwood flooring and updated paint, but some cosmetic updates would enhance its appeal to modern tastes.
