More Insights
Built in 1908 (117 years old).
Condition: Despite the 1908 build year, the property has been extensively and recently renovated, including a 'fully remodeled' main house and a 'brand-new' ADU. The description explicitly states 'like-new condition,' with a new roof, windows, flooring, and an energy-efficient heat pump. Images confirm modern, high-quality finishes throughout, particularly in the kitchens and bathrooms. Both kitchens feature contemporary two-tone cabinetry, solid surface countertops, subway tile backsplashes, and stainless steel appliances (with one white refrigerator, which is a minor detail). Bathrooms are fully updated with modern vanities, illuminated mirrors, new tiling, and contemporary fixtures. All major components appear new or virtually new, meeting current quality standards with no deferred maintenance.

High-Rated Nearby Schools: Proximity to well-regarded schools such as Booksin Elementary (8/10) and Hammer Montessori (7/10) enhances its appeal for families.
Cons
Historic Original Build Year: Despite extensive renovations, the original 1908 build year may raise concerns for some buyers regarding potential underlying structural considerations or historical property limitations.
Above Estimated Market Value: The current listing price is 6% above the property's estimated market value, which may require strong justification or negotiation during the sales process.
Modest Lot Size: The 5,000 sq. ft. lot, while standard for the area, may be considered modest for a property with two units, potentially limiting extensive outdoor living space.
