Condition Analysis

OVERALL CONDITION SCORE

Excellent
TeardownExcellent

Property is new construction or fully renovated.

Although built in 1975, the property has undergone extensive recent renovations that make it feel 'almost new.' Key upgrades include a newer roof, Hardiebacker siding, energy-efficient windows, and high-end interior finishes such as hand-scraped hickory floors and a split-face stone fireplace. The home is described as meticulously maintained and turn-key, with modern systems like a high-efficiency furnace and a new sauna, meeting the criteria for a fully renovated property with no deferred maintenance.

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 = 10454, living area = 1060.

  • Meticulous Turn-Key Renovations

    The property has been extensively upgraded with high-quality finishes including hand-scraped hickory floors, a newer roof, Hardiebacker siding, and energy-efficient windows, offering a 'like-new' feel.

  • Exceptional Value-Add Inclusions

CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES

  • MLS Listing Discrepancy

    Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 1820, other record living area = 1060.

  • Lack of Central Cooling

    The property relies on a window A/C unit rather than a central HVAC cooling system, which may be a drawback for buyers seeking uniform climate control during warmer months.

  • 1975 Original Infrastructure

    Despite comprehensive surface renovations, the 1975 construction year suggests that some underlying structural or utility components may be nearing the end of their typical functional lifespan.
