Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1951, the property is well-maintained but largely dated. While the roof is excellent (5 years old) and modern mini-splits have been added, the kitchen and bathroom are described as 'functional' and 'vintage,' indicating they are likely over 20 years old. The presence of original wall heaters and 1950s architectural elements suggests the home needs cosmetic and system updates to meet modern standards.
The property features a newer roof with upgraded foam insulation and recently replaced attic insulation, providing superior climate control and reduced utility costs for a home of this era.
A detached bonus structure offers incredible flexibility for use as a home office, gym, or art studio, effectively expanding the functional living space beyond the primary square footage.
The interior showcases a perfect blend of timeless charm, including original hardwood floors and built-ins, alongside a functional kitchen with stainless steel appliances and updated flooring.
With only 859 square feet of interior space and a two-bedroom, one-bathroom configuration, the home may feel restrictive for growing families or those requiring more substantial living volume.
The presence of only one bathroom can be a significant drawback for multi-occupant households and may limit the property's competitive edge compared to larger homes in the area.
