Fair
TeardownExcellent
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1941, this home is exceptionally well-maintained but features a dated interior. The kitchen and bathrooms appear to have been last renovated 30+ years ago, evidenced by the fluorescent light-box ceiling, older cabinetry, and vintage appliances. While functional and move-in ready, the property requires cosmetic updates and modernization of systems to meet current market standards.

- 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 = 12272, living area = 1652.
- Expansive Lot Size
The property boasts a massive 12,272 sq. ft. park-like lot, providing rare privacy and significant potential for future expansion or the addition of an ADU.
