Condition Rating
Fair
Built in 1930, this property is an older home. While the description notes a 'remodeled kitchen/dining combo' with 'tile floors' and 'dual pane windows,' indicating significant updates, the exact age of these renovations is not specified. The exterior image shows a well-maintained but clearly aged structure. Without further details on the recency of the kitchen remodel, the condition of the bathroom, or other major systems (HVAC, electrical, plumbing), it's reasonable to assume that while functional and maintained, some components are likely outdated, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria for an aged home with some updates.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Remodeled Kitchen/Dining: The home features a generous remodeled kitchen/dining combo with tile floors and dual pane windows, offering a modern and functional living space.
Expansive Lot with Potential: Situated on an expansive 5000 sqft lot, the property offers significant potential for expansion of the existing 528 sqft home or for creating a personalized outdoor retreat.
Accessible Financing Options: The property is advertised as easy to own with first-time buyer and VA financing available, broadening its appeal to a wider range of potential purchasers.
Natural Light & Energy Efficiency: The home benefits from good natural light and dual pane windows, contributing to a pleasant living environment and improved energy efficiency.
Charming & Private Location: Nestled at the end of a quaint paved walkway, the cozy cottage offers a unique sense of privacy and charm.
Cons
Limited Square Footage: With only 528 sqft, the property is significantly small for a 2-bedroom home, which may limit its appeal to buyers seeking more living space.
Low School Ratings: All nearby schools (elementary, middle, and high) have low ratings (2, 1, and 3 respectively), which could be a significant deterrent for families with school-aged children.
Single Bathroom: The property features only one bathroom for two bedrooms, which can be inconvenient for multiple occupants or families and may impact daily functionality.
