More Insights
Built in 1949 (76 years old).
Condition: Despite being built in 1949, the property has undergone an extensive and high-quality renovation, as explicitly stated in the description and clearly visible in the images. The bathrooms are completely updated with modern fixtures, subway tiles, and vanities, appearing virtually new. The entire living space features new, light-colored hard flooring and recessed lighting, contributing to a fresh, contemporary aesthetic. While no direct kitchen images are provided, the description implies it's part of the open, renovated floor plan, and the consistent modern updates throughout the rest of the home strongly suggest the kitchen is also new or extensively renovated to current standards.

Cons
Partial Bay Views: While offering some scenic outlooks, the description specifies 'partial Bay Views,' which may not satisfy buyers seeking full, unobstructed panoramic Bay views from a hilltop location.
Lower-Rated Local Schools: Several nearby public schools, particularly high schools and middle schools, have lower ratings (1s and 2s), which could be a significant consideration for families prioritizing top-tier public education.
Age of Property (Potential for Older Systems): Built in 1949, despite being renovated, the property's age could imply older underlying systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that may not have been fully updated, potentially leading to future maintenance or upgrade costs.
