Fair
TeardownExcellent
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1925, this property is nearly a century old and is marketed as a 'value-add' opportunity with 'potential.' While the interior appears functional with some updates like vinyl windows and tile flooring, the overall aesthetic is dated, and the kitchen and major systems likely haven't seen a full renovation in over 20 years, necessitating modernization.
PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES
- Great Schools
Elementary School: Taper Avenue Elementary School (9/10).
- ADU & Expansion Potential
The oversized 5,026 sqft lot provides significant flexibility for future expansion or the addition of an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU), offering excellent value-add potential for investors and homeowners alike.
- Ample Secure Parking
Featuring a gated entry and an expansive driveway, the property easily accommodates multiple vehicles, a highly sought-after convenience in the Wilmington area.
CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- MLS Listing Discrepancy
Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 1200, other record living area = 912. Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 3, other record bedroom count = 2.
- Limited Bathroom Count
With three bedrooms but only one bathroom, the property may face functional challenges for larger families and could see restricted resale demand compared to homes with multiple baths.
- Vintage Infrastructure
Originally constructed in 1925, the home likely requires updates to its aging systems and structural components to meet modern efficiency and safety standards.
