More Insights

Built in 1960 (66 years old).
Condition: While the listing states the property has been 'completely renovated' with 'newer flooring and paint' and a 'split ductless HVAC system,' the visual evidence in the kitchen and bathrooms suggests these areas were renovated 15-30 years ago, not recently. The kitchen features dated dark wood cabinets, laminate countertops, white appliances, and an old fluorescent light fixture. The bathroom has a pedestal sink and dated tile work around the tub. The newer flooring and HVAC are positive updates, but the critical kitchen and bathroom areas are significantly outdated in style, requiring substantial cosmetic updates to meet current buyer expectations. The property is functional and well-maintained in other areas, but the dated key components prevent it from achieving a 'Good' rating.

Cons

Ambiguous Property Classification: The listing describes the property as 'currently three units' but is classified as a 'Single Family Residence,' which may lead to complexities with zoning, financing, or legal multi-unit status.
Inconsistent Heating/Cooling Systems: While a split ductless HVAC system is installed, the mention of 'Gas wall heater in top and bottom units' suggests potential inconsistencies in heating/cooling coverage or efficiency across all units.
Age-Related System Concerns: Built in 1960, despite recent renovations, the property's age may imply original or older plumbing, electrical, and structural components that could require future maintenance or upgrades.
