Good
TeardownExcellent
Property is move-in ready.
While originally built in 1936, the home is well-maintained and move-in ready with a kitchen remodeled in 2018 (approx. 8 years ago). Key systems have been updated, including copper plumbing, a 200-amp electrical panel, dual-pane windows, and a newer roof, placing it firmly in the 'Good' category for renovations between 5-15 years old.
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 = 15210, living area = 1879.
- Extensive Infrastructure Updates
The property features significant mechanical and structural upgrades, including copper plumbing, a 200-amp electrical panel, dual-pane windows, and a newer roof, minimizing immediate capital expenditure for the buyer.
- Exceptional Development Potential
Set on an expansive 15,210 SF lot, the property offers rare value-add opportunities such as a lot-split or the construction of an ADU, providing massive upside for investors or multi-generational families.
CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- Transactional Complexity
The intent to sell the property concurrently with the adjacent parcel may complicate the escrow process and could deter buyers looking for a straightforward, independent residential purchase.
- Vintage Layout Constraints
While updated, the 1936 floor plan may lack the open-concept flow preferred by modern buyers, potentially requiring additional interior reconfiguration to suit contemporary lifestyle preferences.
