Condition Analysis

OVERALL CONDITION SCORE

Fair
TeardownExcellent

Property is moderate renovation needed.

The property is well-maintained and functional but remains largely in its original 1994 condition. The kitchen and bathrooms feature dated oak cabinetry, white tile countertops, and basic white appliances consistent with the era of construction. Interior finishes such as wallpaper borders, older carpet, and fluorescent lighting indicate the home has not undergone significant modern renovations in over 30 years, though it appears to have been kept in clean, liveable condition.

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 = 7500, living area = 1520.

  • Exceptional Lot Size

    As one of the largest lots in the area, equivalent to three parcels, this property offers rare privacy and significant potential for expansion or outdoor development.

  • Prime Lower Moonridge Location

    Situated in a highly coveted neighborhood, the home is minutes away from Bear Mountain Resort, the golf course, and the popular Moonridge corridor shops and dining.

CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES

  • Underperforming Local Schools

    The assigned elementary and middle schools have low ratings, which may be a significant drawback for families looking to use the property as a primary residence.

  • Market Re-entry Status

    The property being back on the market after a previous listing period may lead to increased buyer scrutiny regarding potential inspection issues or financing hurdles.

  • Dated 1990s Construction

    Built in 1994, the home may require cosmetic updates or modernization to compete with newer luxury builds or fully renovated rentals in the area.
