Condition Analysis

OVERALL CONDITION SCORE

Excellent
TeardownExcellent

Property is new construction or fully renovated.

Despite being built in 1914, this property has undergone extensive and recent renovations, transforming both residences into virtually new condition. The kitchens feature modern white shaker cabinets, contemporary granite/quartz countertops, black hardware and appliances, and recessed lighting. Bathrooms are equally updated with new vanities, stylish marble-look shower tiling, patterned floor tiles, and modern black fixtures. The entire property showcases new flooring, fresh paint, and updated lighting throughout, presenting a move-in ready home that meets current quality standards. The renovations are so comprehensive that they effectively negate the original build year in terms of condition.

CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES

  • MLS Listing Discrepancy

    Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 1857, other record living area = 1029.

  • Age of Original Construction

    Built in 1914, the property's underlying structure is over a century old. While remodeled, potential buyers may have concerns regarding original infrastructure (e.g., plumbing, electrical, foundation) not explicitly detailed as fully updated.
