Despite being built in 1976, the property has been 'recently remodeled' with exquisite craftsmanship, as stated in the description. The gourmet kitchen features high-end, modern appliances (Sub-Zero, Thermador, Bosch) and an expansive island. The primary and casita bathrooms are described as 'spa-inspired' or 'spa-like,' indicating luxurious, updated features. Wide-plank hardwood floors, custom millwork, and designer lighting throughout the main living areas and primary bedroom reflect current quality standards and a very recent, extensive renovation. While one secondary bathroom (Image 7) shows slightly older tile work, the overall impression from the description and most images is of a property that has undergone a comprehensive, high-quality renovation within the last five years, making it virtually new in terms of finishes and major components.
