Condition Analysis

OVERALL CONDITION SCORE

Fair
TeardownExcellent

Property is moderate renovation needed.

The property, built in 1932, retains significant original character and has a newer HVAC system. However, the kitchen features dated mint-green cabinets, older appliances (mixed black and stainless), and basic tile countertops/backsplash, suggesting a renovation from 15-30 years ago. The bathrooms are also notably dated, with one featuring a black toilet and older vanity, and the other a traditional but not modern vanity. While functional and well-maintained, these key areas show clear signs of being outdated and would require substantial updates for a contemporary aesthetic, aligning with the 'fair' condition criteria.

PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES

  • High Available Lot Utilization

    The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 13938, living area = 1656.

  • Development Potential

    Situated on a rare R-3 zoned double lot totaling nearly 14,000 square feet, this property offers significant investment potential for building a duplex, ADUs, or a second single-family home.

  • Historic Charm & Preserved Character

    A timeless 1932 Victorian gem, the home boasts lovingly preserved rich architectural details, coved ceilings, period moldings, and original character.

CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES

  • Age-Related Maintenance

    As a 1932 Victorian home, despite preserved character, the property may require ongoing maintenance and potential updates to older systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical) not explicitly mentioned as upgraded.

  • Development Verification Required

    The significant development potential (duplex, ADUs) is contingent on 'buyer to verify with city,' which implies potential complexities, costs, and time for due diligence and municipal approvals.

  • Interior Modernization Opportunity

    While architectural character is preserved, the description does not highlight modern updates to key interior areas like the kitchen or bathrooms, which may be a consideration for buyers seeking contemporary finishes.
