More Insights

Built in 1956 (70 years old).
Condition: Despite being built in 1956, this property has undergone a comprehensive and recent renovation, as evidenced by the 'fully updated and move-in ready' description and 'brand-new' components. The kitchen features modern white cabinetry, new quartz countertops, a subway tile backsplash, and new stainless steel appliances (dishwasher) and a black gas range. Both bathrooms are also fully updated with new vanities, modern fixtures, and tiled shower surrounds. New laminate flooring and fresh paint throughout, along with modern ceiling fans, contribute to a virtually new interior. While the property currently lacks central HVAC, the seller's willingness to install it based on offer addresses this potential concern, and does not detract from the excellent condition of the recent renovations.
