More Insights

Built in 1937 (88 years old).
Condition: Despite being built in 1937, this property has been extensively updated and meticulously maintained, aligning with the 'Good' condition criteria. The kitchen features high-quality handcrafted wood cabinetry, modern stainless steel appliances (double oven, built-in refrigerator), and a large center island, all in excellent condition. The primary bathroom is spa-like with modern tile, a walk-in shower, soaking tub, and dual vanities. Throughout the home, hardwood floors, recessed lighting, and custom built-ins contribute to a move-in ready state. Key systems like the HVAC are newer, and owned solar panels add to its modern efficiency. While the kitchen cabinetry style is high-quality, it leans more transitional than ultra-contemporary, preventing an 'Excellent' score which typically implies renovations within the last 5 years with virtually new components.

Versatile & Spacious Interior: Offers a spacious open floor plan with two generous living rooms, custom built-ins, and a well-appointed kitchen with a large center island, ideal for entertaining and daily living.

Cons

Potential Age-Related System Concerns: Despite being well-maintained, the 1937 construction year may imply potential future maintenance or upgrade needs for original systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical) not explicitly mentioned as updated.
Detached Garage Inconvenience: The two-car garage is detached, which can be less convenient for daily access and security compared to an attached garage, particularly during adverse weather.
