Good
TeardownExcellent
Property is move-in ready.
While built in 1970, the property has undergone significant renovations that place it in the 'Good' category.

- Versatile Multigenerational Layout

CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- MLS Listing Discrepancy
Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 5, other record bedroom count = 6.

A recent price reduction after 27 days on the market suggests the initial listing price may have exceeded current buyer expectations for the immediate area.
