More Insights

Built in 1937 (89 years old).
Condition: This 1937-built Classic Spanish Home has undergone significant, high-quality renovations in key areas, notably the 'culinary dream' kitchen with state-of-the-art Viking and Wolf appliances, and a 'recently upgraded bathroom' for the downstairs ensuite. The restored original hardwood floors and architectural details are in excellent condition, indicating meticulous maintenance. While the property boasts modern upgrades in critical areas, the lack of explicit mention of recent updates to all major systems (electrical, plumbing, HVAC) and the absence of central cooling suggest that some components may not be as new as the renovated spaces. This places it firmly in the 'Good' category, as it is move-in ready with no immediate renovation required, and major systems are likely functional, but not all components are new or extensively renovated within the last 5 years.
