More Insights

Built in 1930 (95 years old).
Condition: This 1930-built home is well-maintained and boasts recent updates like a new HVAC system (2023) and an updated bathroom with a marble vanity and subway-tiled shower. The original wood floors are in good condition. However, the kitchen, while featuring 'crisp white cabinetry,' has dated tiled countertops and an older electric range with coil burners, which significantly detract from a modern aesthetic. While functional, the kitchen would likely require minor updates to meet current buyer expectations, aligning with a renovation timeline of 15-30 years ago for that specific area. The property is move-in ready, but the kitchen shows signs of being outdated.
