Condition Analysis
OVERALL CONDITION SCORE
Property is move-in ready.
The property is move-in ready and has undergone significant recent cosmetic updates, including new engineered oak flooring, fresh paint, and modern light fixtures. The kitchen is well-maintained with stainless steel appliances and stone countertops, although the cabinetry style is slightly dated. While the home was built in 1964, major systems like the roof (2013) and furnace (2016) are within their functional lifespans, and the interior presentation is bright and modern due to the addition of skylights and a remodeled bathroom.
PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES

The property features only a one-car garage, which may be insufficient for multi-vehicle households or those requiring significant additional storage space.
- Aging Major Systems
While the roof and furnace have been replaced, they are now over 10 and 8 years old respectively, meaning they may approach the end of their typical service life sooner than new builds.
- Compact Living Area
With 1,230 square feet distributed across three bedrooms and a bonus room, the individual room sizes and overall living area may feel constrained for larger families.
