SUMMARY
This property presents a High-Potential Investment Opportunity with a List Price of $1,760,000—positioned well above the $1,156,034 Fair Market Value by -52%.

Poor
TeardownExcellent
Property is extensive renovation needed.
Built in 1949 and held by the same owner for 58 years, the home is in mostly original condition and requires a total gut renovation. Visual evidence shows a hole in the ceiling, exposed electrical components, outdated single-pane windows, and missing fixtures, indicating significant deferred maintenance and the need for a full rehab.
