Good
TeardownExcellent
Property is move-in ready.
Built in 1956 but recently refreshed and expanded. The kitchen features new countertops and stainless steel appliances, though cabinetry appears to be older painted units. Hardwood floors are newly refinished, and the exterior has fresh paint and landscaping. While bathrooms and some systems show signs of older updates (10-15 years), the home is well-maintained, functional, and move-in ready.
PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES
- Turn-Key Modernization
The residence features a fresh interior and exterior palette, refinished hardwood floors, and a modernized kitchen with new countertops and appliances, offering a move-in-ready experience.
- Expanded Living Space
At 1,870 square feet, the home has been thoughtfully expanded to include a spacious family room and an enclosed patio, providing a versatile floor plan rarely found in traditional 1950s-era models.
- Enhanced Curb Appeal
Newly landscaped front and rear yards create an inviting first impression and provide functional, attractive outdoor settings for dining and relaxation.
CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- MLS Listing Discrepancy
Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 1870, other record living area = 1700.
- Vintage Infrastructure
Despite the cosmetic and kitchen updates, the 1956 construction may still feature original core systems that could require future maintenance or upgrades.
- Moderate School Ratings
While the property is conveniently located near multiple schools, the assigned middle school carries a moderate rating, which may be a consideration for education-focused buyers.
