More Insights

Built in 1929 (97 years old).
Condition: This property features a newly remodeled, vibrant kitchen with high-end appliances, quartz countertops, and modern light fixtures, indicating a very recent and extensive update. Key structural components like the roof are new (2 years old), and owned solar panels have been installed. The living areas boast beautiful, well-maintained wood floors, and the patio deck and garage flooring are also recently updated. While the property has undergone significant, high-quality renovations in most critical areas, the single bathroom appears dated with older tile, vanity, and light fixtures, preventing an 'Excellent' rating. However, it is move-in ready with no immediate renovation required for functionality, aligning with a 'Good' condition score.
