Condition Analysis

OVERALL CONDITION SCORE

Fair
TeardownExcellent

Property is moderate renovation needed.

The property is well-maintained with significant infrastructure upgrades including a newer roof, HVAC system, and updated windows. However, the interior finishes are dated; the kitchen features older cabinetry and white appliances, and the bathrooms reflect styles from several decades ago. While the home shows pride of ownership and is move-in ready, it requires cosmetic modernization to meet contemporary standards.

PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES

  • Exceptional Garage & ADU Potential

    The rare, oversized detached 4-car garage and extended driveway offer unparalleled utility for car enthusiasts, workshops, or a high-value ADU conversion.

  • Major Infrastructure Upgrades

    Significant capital improvements, including a newer roof, HVAC system, and updated windows, provide immediate peace of mind and reduced maintenance costs.

  • Versatile Single-Story Floor Plan

    The flexible layout features up to 5 bedrooms and dual living areas on a single level, making it ideal for multi-generational families or those needing a home office.

CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES

  • Low Bathroom-to-Bedroom Ratio

    With only 1.5 to 2 bathrooms serving a potential 5-bedroom household, the property may face functional challenges for larger families.

  • Dated Cosmetic Condition

    Built in 1954, the home likely requires interior modernization and aesthetic updates to meet contemporary buyer expectations and maximize market value.
