Condition: Despite being built in 1920, this property has undergone a meticulous and extensive renovation, bringing it to a virtually new condition. The gourmet kitchen features high-end Thermador appliances, custom cabinetry, and quartz countertops. All three bathrooms are fully updated with modern fixtures, stylish tiling, and custom vanities. Hardwood floors are new throughout, and dual-pane windows enhance energy efficiency. The overall aesthetic is contemporary and fresh, with no signs of deferred maintenance. The only minor omission is the lack of explicit mention of a central cooling system, but the comprehensive nature of the renovation strongly indicates an 'excellent' condition.
