Poor
TeardownExcellent
Property is extensive renovation needed.
Built in 1956, this property is explicitly marketed as a 'cosmetic fixer.' While it features some recent flooring and plumbing updates, the kitchen and bathrooms are severely dated (30-50+ years old) with original cabinetry and appliances, requiring a full rehabilitation to meet modern standards.
PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES
- Updated Infrastructure
The property features significant plumbing upgrades to copper and ABS, along with a finished garage with recessed lighting, reducing the need for immediate high-cost structural repairs.
- Value-Add Potential
As a cosmetic fixer with original wood floors beneath existing bedroom carpets, this home offers an excellent opportunity for buyers to build immediate sweat equity through minor aesthetic improvements.
- Recent Interior Refreshes
The living room, dining room, and hallways have been updated with newer vinyl flooring and fresh paint, providing a clean and modern foundation in the home's primary living spaces.
CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- Cosmetic Deficiencies
The bedrooms require immediate attention, including fresh paint and either new carpeting or floor refinishing, which may be a drawback for buyers seeking a fully move-in-ready experience.
- Local School Performance
The assigned elementary school has a lower rating compared to surrounding districts, which could impact the property's appeal to families and influence future appreciation rates.
