Condition Analysis

OVERALL CONDITION SCORE

Fair
TeardownExcellent

Property is moderate renovation needed.

Built in 1990, the home is well-maintained and functional but remains largely in its original state. The kitchen and bathrooms feature dated oak cabinetry, older tile countertops, and white appliances that lack modern appeal. While the addition of a paid solar system is a significant upgrade, the overall interior—including flooring and fixtures—shows signs of age and requires cosmetic modernization to meet current market 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 = 15243, living area = 1974.

  • Sustainable Energy

    The property includes a fully paid-for solar system, offering the new owner significant long-term savings on utility costs and enhancing the home's overall value.

  • Expansive Lot

    Situated on a generous 15,000+ square foot lot, this home provides a rare 'country feel' with ample space for outdoor recreation, gardening, or potential future additions.

CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES

  • MLS Listing Discrepancy

    Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 4, other record bedroom count = 3.

  • Potential for Modernization

    Built in 1990, the home may require cosmetic updates or interior renovations to align with contemporary design trends and the expectations of modern buyers.

  • Limited Walkability

    While the location offers a quiet and private atmosphere, it is not within walking distance of major amenities, requiring a drive for shopping, dining, and errands.
