More Insights

Built in 1949 (77 years old).
Condition: Despite being built in 1949, the property has undergone an extensive and recent renovation, as evidenced by the 'beautifully remodeled' description and images. Both units feature modern kitchens with new cabinets, countertops, and stainless steel appliances (Image 4, Image 7), updated flooring (tile and wood-look LVP), fresh paint, and modern recessed lighting. The installation of 'newer mini splits systems' provides efficient cooling and heating, significantly upgrading the property's functionality. While the original structure is old, the visible and critical systems have been thoroughly updated, making it move-in ready with no immediate renovations required, aligning with the 'Good' criteria for properties extensively renovated within the last 5-15 years.
