Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1966, the property is well over 50 years old but avoids a 'Poor' or 'Tear-down' rating due to critical system updates including a newer roof, central heating, and dual-pane windows. The kitchen and interior finishes appear original or significantly dated (30+ years), requiring cosmetic modernization, though the home remains functional and move-in ready.
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 7700, living area = 864.
The property features a newer roof, newer central heating, and newer dual-pane windows, providing a solid structural foundation and reducing immediate capital expenditure for the buyer.
Soaring vaulted tongue-and-groove wood ceilings and exposed beams deliver the classic rustic cabin aesthetic that is highly desirable for vacation rentals and mountain retreats.
At only 864 square feet with a single bathroom, the interior layout may be restrictive for larger families or groups seeking more spacious accommodations.
The interior requires cosmetic updates and modernization to replace dated finishes and maximize the home's potential as a high-end rental or primary residence.
