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 'renovated mid-century property' description and the images. The kitchen features new white shaker cabinets, modern stainless steel appliances, white quartz countertops, and subway tile backsplash. Both bathrooms are fully updated with modern vanities, new fixtures, and contemporary tile work (subway tile in showers, hexagonal floor tile in one). Throughout the home, there is new light-colored engineered wood flooring, fresh paint, and modern recessed lighting. All visible components appear virtually new, meeting current quality standards with no signs of deferred maintenance.
