Condition Analysis

OVERALL CONDITION SCORE

Good
TeardownExcellent

Property is move-in ready.

The property is move-in ready and has been extensively updated to serve as a turnkey mountain retreat. The kitchen is a highlight, featuring modern stainless steel appliances, stone countertops, a decorative tile backsplash, and a custom live-edge breakfast bar. Additional high-quality features include updated front-loading laundry machines and a well-maintained outdoor living space with a hot tub and fire pit. While the 1964 build retains its original rustic wood paneling and some bathroom fixtures show an older style, the overall condition and major system updates place it firmly in the 'good' category.

PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES

  • Prime Moonridge Location

    Situated in the highly desirable Lower Moonridge neighborhood, the property offers exceptional proximity to Bear Mountain Ski Resort and is within walking distance of the local golf course, zoo, and dining.

  • Turnkey Outdoor Amenities

    The fully fenced backyard is optimized for mountain living and guest entertainment, featuring a private hot tub, a fire pit, and a dedicated storage shed for seasonal gear.

  • High Investment Potential

    Given its location and amenity package, this property is perfectly positioned as a high-demand short-term rental investment or a versatile vacation getaway in a year-round resort market.

CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES

  • Aging Infrastructure

    Originally built in 1964, the property may require more frequent maintenance or capital improvements to modernize older systems and structural elements compared to newer builds.

  • Low School Ratings

    The local elementary and middle schools are rated significantly low (2 and 3 respectively), which may deter full-time resident families and limit the long-term buyer pool.

  • Negative Equity Trend

    The current list price of $529,000 sits well below the 2022 sale price of $600,000, reflecting a notable decline in market valuation over the last few years.
