Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1909, this property is aged but appears to have been maintained. The kitchen features dated tile flooring, basic white cabinets, and functional but not modern appliances. Bathrooms are very simple and functional, but lack contemporary finishes. Hardwood floors throughout show wear, and while some updates like recessed lighting are present, the overall aesthetic and components suggest renovations were done some time ago (likely 15-30 years) and now require further modernization. The property is livable but needs significant cosmetic updates to meet current buyer expectations, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria.
The property offers significant development upside, with city approval for building 2 additional units in the back and adding to the main home, allowing for a potential total of 4 units, ideal for investors and builders.
