Condition Analysis

Despite being built in 1948, this property has undergone significant and recent functional upgrades, including new central heat and a new 200-amp electrical service, which are crucial for an older home. The interior features well-maintained hardwood floors, recessed lighting, and custom built-ins, contributing to a move-in ready condition. The kitchen, while featuring white tile countertops that lean towards vintage, is bright, clean, and equipped with modern stainless steel appliances. The overall condition suggests a well-cared-for home with major systems updated within the last 5-15 years, aligning with the 'Good' category.

The generous 6,032 sq ft lot provides substantial room for future expansion, allowing for additional bedrooms, bathrooms, or larger-scale development to enhance value.
- Key Modern System Upgrades
Recent updates including new central heat, a 200-amp electrical service, and hardwired internet cabling ensure modern comfort, efficiency, and connectivity.
- Charming & Character-Filled Interior
Features like hardwood floors, custom built-ins, crown molding, and a classic fireplace create a cozy, aesthetically pleasing, and move-in ready living environment.
CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- Compact Interior Footprint
The 763 sq ft interior is relatively small for a single-family home, which may limit appeal for buyers seeking more expansive indoor living space.
- Single Bathroom Configuration
The presence of only one bathroom for two bedrooms could be a functional limitation for multiple occupants or guests, potentially necessitating future upgrades.
- Age of Property Structure
Built in 1948, the property's older construction, despite recent updates, may still present long-term maintenance considerations or require more extensive structural renovations.
