Property is extensive renovation needed.
Built in 1980 and retaining its original 46-year-old finishes, this property fits the 'Poor' criteria due to age (>30y) and lack of renovation. Interior photos show heavily stained/soiled carpeting, original dark wood cabinetry, and popcorn ceilings, indicating the home requires a full rehab to be brought to modern standards.
The 1,613 sq ft floor plan features soaring vaulted ceilings in the living room, creating an airy and expansive feel rarely found in two-bedroom homes.
The property offers a two-car garage plus a large driveway for additional vehicles, complemented by a primary suite with two generous closets for superior storage.
Situated on a generous 6,534 sq ft lot, the home features a well-maintained yard and a charming front porch that enhances its welcoming aesthetic.
The home retains much of its original 1980s character and requires cosmetic updates to meet modern design standards and buyer expectations.
With over 90 days on the market and a recent price reduction, the property may face challenges regarding its perceived value relative to its current condition.
