* Subject property listed price vs sold prices of comps.
Property is moderate renovation needed.
The property has undergone recent cosmetic improvements, including new laminate flooring and fresh interior paint, which provide a clean appearance. However, the core components remain dated; the kitchen features older wood cabinetry and tile flooring, and the home relies on aged systems such as wall heaters and window AC units. Built in 1958, the exterior shows signs of wear and the yard requires significant landscaping, placing it firmly in the 'fair' category as a functional but outdated value-add opportunity.
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 10454, living area = 949.
The property features a 3-bedroom front house and a separate 2-bedroom detached unit, providing a rare opportunity for significant rental income or a flexible multi-generational living arrangement.
Sitting on a generous 10,454 square foot lot, the property offers ample outdoor space, privacy, and significant potential for further development or landscaping projects.
Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 5, other record bedroom count = 3.
The property was recently sold within the past year on 2025-08-22. The sold price is $126,000.00.
