Condition Analysis

OVERALL CONDITION SCORE

Fair
TeardownExcellent

Property is moderate renovation needed.

Built in 1957, this home is very well-maintained and clean, showing clear pride of ownership, but it lacks recent comprehensive renovations. The kitchen features dated tile countertops and older built-in appliances, while the bathrooms retain vintage mid-century tiling and older cabinetry. While the property is functional and move-in ready, the overall style, light fixtures, and finishes are outdated and do not meet the criteria for 'good' or 'excellent' based on the age of the last major updates.

    The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 16909, living area = 2758.
