More Insights

Built in 1923 (102 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1923, is move-in ready and shows signs of recent significant updates. The laundry room and a second bathroom were built from the ground up approximately 6 years ago, aligning with the 'Good' criteria for extensive renovation within 5-15 years. The living areas feature clean laminate and hardwood flooring, and recessed lighting. While the kitchen has functional built-in appliances, its tile countertops and backsplash appear dated, suggesting an older renovation or style choice. However, this does not necessitate immediate renovation. The main bathroom includes a jetted spa tub and a more contemporary vanity. Overall, the home is well-maintained with minimal wear and tear, and key systems in renovated areas are within expected lifespans, justifying a 'Good' rating.
