Condition Analysis

OVERALL CONDITION SCORE

Good
TeardownExcellent

Property is move-in ready.

The property is move-in ready and has undergone significant recent renovations, including a fully updated kitchen with quartz countertops, shaker-style cabinetry, and stainless steel appliances. Major systems have been addressed with a new roof, tankless water heater, and wall furnace. While the 1927 home features beautifully refinished original hardwood floors and updated landscaping, it retains its original small-scale footprint and wall-heating system rather than a full modern HVAC conversion, fitting the criteria for a well-maintained, updated 'Good' condition.

PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES

  • Preserved Period Charm

CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES

  • MLS Listing Discrepancy

    Lot size discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing lot size in square feet =2178, other record lot size in square feet = 2244.

  • Limited Square Footage

    At just 700 square feet, the living space is quite compact for a two-bedroom residence, which may feel restrictive for some buyers.

  • Single Bathroom Configuration

    The presence of only one bathroom can be a significant drawback for households with multiple occupants or for those who frequently host guests.
