Property is extensive renovation needed.
Built in 1954, this 70-year-old property exceeds the 30-year threshold for the 'poor' category. While the roof was replaced 3 years ago, the interior—specifically the kitchen and flooring—is significantly dated and requires a full rehab to meet modern market standards. The listing's emphasis on development potential for a two-home lot further indicates the structure's secondary value relative to the land.
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 7405, living area = 781.
The R6-zoned lot provides significant investment upside, offering the rare opportunity to explore a two-home development in a high-demand growth corridor.
Perfectly situated near the vibrant 51st Avenue corridor, the property offers easy access to trendy dining, coffee shops, and local parks like West Park and England Park.
At just 781 square feet with a 2-bed, 1-bath configuration, the home's small footprint may limit its appeal to families or buyers seeking modern spaciousness.
The property is zoned for schools with low performance ratings, which could be a deterrent for long-term family residents and impact future resale value.
