Condition Analysis

OVERALL CONDITION SCORE

Poor
TeardownExcellent

Property is extensive renovation needed.

The 1900-built residential structure is currently in a framed condition with no drywall, meaning it lacks a functional kitchen, bathrooms, flooring, and finished systems. While there is an approved remodeling plan, the home is currently unlivable and requires substantial rehabilitation. The listing's high price point is attributed to the 6.16 acres of land and its development potential rather than the condition of the existing dwelling.
