Condition Analysis
See Full ReportOVERALL CONDITION SCORE
Good
TeardownExcellent
Property is move-in ready.
Despite being built in 1912, the property is well-maintained, functional, and move-in ready. The interior features beautifully preserved and refinished inlaid hardwood floors, clean paint, and updated lighting/skylights. While the 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom layout is somewhat dated and suggests potential for a second bath addition, the overall condition shows clear pride of ownership without immediate major defects.
