More Insights

Built in 1973 (53 years old).
Condition: Despite being built in 1973, the property has been 'recently remodeled and freshly repainted' as stated in the description, which is strongly supported by the images. The kitchen features modern sage green cabinetry, butcher block countertops, a stylish vertical subway tile backsplash, new gold-tone fixtures, and new retro-style appliances (Galanz refrigerator, white range). The bathroom is also extensively updated with a modern vanity, gold-tone fixtures, an arched mirror, and a very contemporary shower with marble-look tiles and fluted glass. New mini-split systems for heating/cooling, concrete flooring throughout, new sliding glass doors, and an EV charging station further confirm a comprehensive and recent renovation. All components appear new or virtually new, meeting current quality standards with no visible deferred maintenance.
