SUMMARY
This Single Family Residence represents a High-Potential Investment Opportunity, listed at $750,000—positioned well above the $713,053 Fair Market Value by 5%. While the property is currently priced above market, the Condition Rating of 4 and the Detached Garage with ADU Conversion Potential provide a clear path to forced appreciation. This asset is ideal for Buy-and-Hold Investors or Owner-Occupants looking to leverage the bonus room for rental income. Despite lower-rated local schools, the property’s move-in ready status offers immediate utility in a quiet neighborhood.

Condition Analysis
See Full ReportOVERALL CONDITION SCORE
Fair
TeardownExcellent
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1936, this property is well-maintained and 'move-in ready' per the description, but the interior is significantly dated. The kitchen and bathrooms show finishes and appliances that appear to be 20-30+ years old, and the presence of older carpeting and basic wall-mounted plumbing suggests the home needs cosmetic updates and modernization of systems to meet current standards.
PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES
- Great Schools
High School: Middle College High School (9/10).
- ADU Conversion Potential
The detached garage includes a bonus room, providing a significant opportunity for an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) conversion to generate rental income or increase total living square footage.
- Move-In Ready Condition
This well-maintained home is clean and features fresh interior paint, offering a turnkey solution for buyers looking to avoid the immediate costs and delays of a renovation.
CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- Low School Ratings
The assigned public schools for this address have consistently low ratings, which may be a deterrent for families and could impact the property's long-term appreciation potential.
- Limited Lot Size
At 4,808 square feet, the lot is relatively compact for the neighborhood, offering less outdoor space for recreation or large-scale landscaping compared to nearby properties.
