Condition Analysis
OVERALL CONDITION SCORE
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1950, the main house shows significant age with a very dated kitchen featuring older appliances and laminate countertops. The main bathroom, while updated, reflects a style from 15-25 years ago. However, the ADU (garage conversion) presents a more recently renovated kitchen and bathroom with modern finishes and newer flooring, pulling the overall condition up. The recently installed roof is a positive, but the property still requires minor updates, particularly in the main house, and potential buyers must verify ADU permits, which is a significant consideration.
