Condition Analysis
See Full ReportOVERALL CONDITION SCORE
Poor
TeardownExcellent
Property is extensive renovation needed.
Built in 1960 and offered for the first time in decades, the home is in original condition. The kitchen features 60-year-old cabinetry and finishes, while the presence of a wall heater and surface-mounted wiring indicates outdated HVAC and electrical systems that require a full rehab.
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 = 8000, living area = 1788.
- Spacious & Versatile Layout
With over 1,700 sq ft and four bedrooms, the home offers significant flexibility for multigenerational living, a private home office, or high-capacity rental potential.
- ADU & Expansion Potential
The generous 8,000 sq ft lot provides an excellent opportunity for an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) addition or custom outdoor improvements to maximize the property's value.
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.
- Significant Renovation Required
Marketed as a 'sweat equity' project, the home likely requires substantial investment in modernizing finishes and systems to reach its full market potential.
- Limited Bathroom Count
The current 1.5-bathroom configuration for a four-bedroom home is a low ratio that may require additional plumbing investment to satisfy modern buyer expectations.
