More Insights

Built in 1941 (85 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1941, benefits from significant updates. The main house features updated wood-look tile flooring, granite countertops, and refreshed bathrooms that are clean and functional, though the style may suggest updates from 10-20 years ago. The permitted ADU is a standout, boasting a beautifully renovated, modern kitchen with subway tile, butcher block countertops, and stainless steel appliances, along with a stylish subway tile bathroom with a clawfoot tub. The ADU also includes a modern mini-split AC unit. Both units are move-in ready with no immediate renovations required, aligning with the 'Good' condition criteria for properties extensively renovated within the last 5-15 years.

Pros & Cons

Updated Main Residence: The main house features attractive updates including beautiful wood floors, granite countertops, and refreshed bathrooms, enhancing its appeal and move-in readiness.

Cons

MLS Listing Discrepancy: Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 1300, other record living area = 816. Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 3, other record bedroom count = 1.
Property Age & Potential Maintenance: Built in 1941, the property, despite recent updates, may present ongoing maintenance challenges and require more frequent upkeep typical of older constructions.
Compact Overall Living Space: With a total of 1300 sqft for a 2-bedroom main house and a studio ADU, the combined living areas might feel constrained for some owner-occupants or larger families.
Landlord Responsibilities: The presence of an income-generating ADU (and potential Jr. ADU) necessitates active tenant management, which may not appeal to all buyers seeking a purely owner-occupied residence.
