Condition Analysis
See Full ReportOVERALL CONDITION SCORE
Fair
TeardownExcellent
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1964, the property is well-maintained but significantly dated. The kitchen features oak cabinetry and brown double ovens likely dating back 30+ years, and the presence of a window AC unit suggests the lack of a modern central HVAC system. While functional and move-in ready, the home requires comprehensive cosmetic updates to the kitchen and baths to meet modern standards.
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 = 10220, living area = 1647.
- Expansive Lot & ADU Potential
The rare 10,220 sq. ft. lot in the desirable Poet Tract provides significant space for outdoor living or the addition of an ADU, maximizing the property's long-term utility and investment value.
- Mature Urban Orchard
Featuring approximately 55 fruit trees, the property offers a unique, lush, and productive landscape that provides immediate character and a 'homestead' feel rarely found in an urban setting.
CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- Potential for Modernization
Built in 1964 and marketed as an opportunity to 'bring your vision to life,' the home likely requires additional capital investment for interior updates to meet contemporary luxury standards.
- Absence of Scenic Views
The property lacks any significant views, which may be a competitive disadvantage compared to other high-priced residences in the region that offer panoramic or elevated vistas.
