The property maintains a Fair Condition Rating (50/100), suggesting the property is in acceptable condition with potential for value enhancement through selective updates and improvements.

Property is moderate renovation needed.
The property, built in 1935, is well-maintained for its age with newer flooring and interior paint in the main house. However, the main house kitchen features older white appliances and dated tile, and the bathroom, while clean, has very dated fixtures (clawfoot tub, pedestal sink, basic lighting). While functional and move-in ready, these elements suggest updates that are likely 15-30 years old, fitting the 'aged but maintained' and 'functional but outdated' criteria for a 'Fair' condition score.
Features a detached rental unit, offering significant income potential or flexible multi-generational living arrangements, directly offsetting ownership costs.
The main house benefits from an updated kitchen, newer flooring, and fresh interior paint, reducing immediate renovation needs for a new owner.
Described as a 'charming bungalow,' appealing to buyers seeking character and curb appeal in their home.
The property has been on the market for an unusually long period (313 days), which may suggest challenges with pricing or perceived value.
A lot size of 2,788 sqft is relatively small, potentially limiting outdoor space or future expansion options, especially for a duplex.
Built in 1935, the property's age may imply potential for unseen maintenance or system upgrades (e.g., plumbing, electrical) beyond the cosmetic updates mentioned.
Charming bungalow featuring a detached rental unit. The main house includes 2 bedrooms & 1 bathroom with enclosed front and rear porches, an updated kitchen, newer flooring and interior paint. The detached rental unit includes 1 bedroom & 1 bathroom with a spacious open kitchen, dining and living combo area. Perfect for multi generational living or rental income to help offset the cost of ownership!
