TeardownExcellent
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1939, the property has received cosmetic surface updates including newer laminate flooring, fresh paint, and recessed lighting. However, the kitchen features dated oak cabinetry and the bathroom retains older tile work and fixtures likely exceeding 20 years in age. While the ADU includes a modern mini-split HVAC system and the home is move-in ready, the core wet areas are dated and will require modernization to meet current standards.
