Condition Analysis
See Full ReportOVERALL CONDITION SCORE
Fair
TeardownExcellent
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1951, the property is functional but dated. While it features a new roof, the kitchen contains older oak cabinetry and laminate countertops likely over 20 years old. Interior finishes like the worn carpeting and original 1950s parquet flooring/built-ins require updating, and the listing explicitly notes the opportunity for buyers to 'make it their own,' indicating a need for modernization.
PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES
- Spacious Living Areas
With 1,627 square feet of living space including a large family room, this home offers a more generous and functional footprint than many standard three-bedroom residences in the Washington Manor area.
- Key Infrastructure & Utilities
The property features a brand-new roof and a rare private backyard well, providing the buyer with immediate capital expenditure savings and reduced long-term costs for landscaping irrigation.
- Ample Parking Capacity
The inclusion of two separate driveways provides exceptional off-street parking, a highly desirable and practical feature for multi-vehicle households or those who enjoy entertaining guests.
CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- Cosmetic Updating Required
The property is positioned as an opportunity for buyers to add their own personal style, indicating that the interior likely requires modern updates and aesthetic refreshments to meet contemporary standards.
- Inconsistent School Ratings
While the local elementary school boasts a high rating of 8, the assigned middle and high schools are rated significantly lower (4-5), which may impact long-term appeal for education-focused families.
