Condition Analysis

OVERALL CONDITION SCORE

Fair
TeardownExcellent

Property is moderate renovation needed.

Built in 1960, this multi-residential farmstead is well-maintained but largely outdated. While the main house features 'gleaming' hardwood floors and solar panels, the listing explicitly states the kitchen 'awaits your vision' and the four barns require renovation. The property shows signs of age typical for a 60-year-old estate that has had regular upkeep but lacks a comprehensive modern renovation, placing it firmly in the fair category.

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 = 304049, living area = 2354.

  • Multi-Residential Compound

    Featuring three separate homes on a single nearly 7-acre lot, this property offers exceptional versatility for multi-generational living or significant rental income potential.

  • Agricultural Infrastructure

    The expansive 6.96-acre grounds include four barns, fencing, and cross-fencing, providing a turnkey foundation for livestock, equestrian use, or creative workshop projects.

CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES

  • MLS Listing Discrepancy

    Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 2354, other record living area = 960.

  • Significant Renovation Needs

  • High Maintenance Burden

    With multiple aging structures dating back to 1960 and extensive acreage, the ongoing maintenance and upkeep requirements for this farmstead will be substantial.
