More Insights

Built in 1922 (104 years old).
Condition: Built in 1922, this historic home retains much of its original charm with well-preserved wood floors, doors, and architectural details. The kitchen features granite countertops and stainless steel appliances, which appear to be functional updates from 15-30 years ago rather than recent. One bathroom is very original in style (pedestal sink, black and white tile), while the other has been updated with a vessel sink and granite, but the style is not contemporary. While the property is well-maintained for its age and move-in ready, the underlying systems (electrical, plumbing, HVAC) are likely original or significantly aged, and the aesthetic of the updated areas shows signs of being outdated, requiring minor updates to meet modern standards.
