More Insights

Built in 1878 (148 years old).
Condition: This historic 1878 Italianate home is exceptionally well-maintained for its age, as described by its 'museum-quality condition.' The hardwood floors throughout the main living areas are in good condition. However, the kitchen, while functional, features light wood cabinets, dark speckled countertops, and a kidney-shaped island that suggest a renovation from 15-25 years ago, making it stylistically dated. The bathrooms are significantly outdated with gold-toned fixtures, older tiling (including a Greek key border), and floral wallpaper, likely reflecting renovations from 25-40 years ago. Upstairs bedrooms have clean but not new carpeting. While the property is move-in ready and structurally sound, the kitchen and bathrooms require minor to moderate updates to meet current aesthetic and functional standards, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria.
