More Insights

Built in 1928 (98 years old).
Condition: This 1928 Spanish Revival estate is beautifully maintained with original architectural details and hardwood flooring. However, the kitchen features a vintage gas stove, painted cabinets, and butcher block countertops, while the bathrooms exhibit dated tile work, fixtures, and one even includes a green tub. These areas, along with the likely absence of central air conditioning, indicate that while functional, they are significantly outdated and would require modernization to meet current standards and buyer preferences. The property is aged but maintained, showing signs of outdated major components that require updates.
