More Insights
Built in 1961 (64 years old).
Condition: Despite being built in 1961, this property has undergone significant and stylish cosmetic renovations, particularly in the kitchen and bathroom, making it move-in ready and 'Airbnb-Ready.' The kitchen features modern white flat-panel cabinets, white countertops, subway tile backsplash, and stainless steel appliances. The bathroom has updated fixtures, a modern black-framed glass shower door with subway tile, and a contemporary vanity, though the tiled countertop base appears older but well-maintained. Throughout the home, the white painted concrete flooring, modern light fixtures (like ceiling fans), and mini-split AC units indicate recent and thoughtful updates. While the underlying systems of a 1961 build might still be older, the visible components and major comfort systems are modern and well-maintained, aligning with a 'Good' condition score.
