Condition Analysis

OVERALL CONDITION SCORE

Fair
TeardownExcellent

Property is moderate renovation needed.

The property is a well-maintained 1911 building that is clean and move-in ready, but it lacks recent modernizations. The kitchens and 'vintage' bathrooms feature styles and appliances that appear to be several decades old. While the hardwood floors and structural elements seem functional and cared for, the overall aesthetic and major systems are outdated according to current market standards, requiring minor updates to achieve a 'good' or 'excellent' rating.

PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES

  • Great Schools

    Elementary School: Chinese Immersion School At Deavila (9/10). Middle School: Lilienthal (Claire) Elementary School (9/10). High School: Lowell High School (10/10).

  • High Investment Potential

  • Exceptional Parking and Storage

    Features a rare, massive 3+ car garage plus additional workspace and studio areas, providing significant value and utility in a dense urban environment where parking is at a premium.

CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES

  • MLS Listing Discrepancy

    Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 2217, other record living area = 1900.

  • Unit Configuration Discrepancy

    While tax records list the building as a 2-flat, it is currently configured as three units, which may present challenges regarding legal use, permitting, or future financing.

  • Vintage Interior Condition

    With a 1911 build date and 'vintage' bathrooms, the property likely requires capital improvements and modernization to appeal to high-end tenants or to maximize its long-term value.
