Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1947, the home is functional but dated. The kitchen features oak cabinetry and tile work consistent with a 20-30 year old renovation, and the single bathroom shows aged fixtures. While the inclusion of central HVAC and double-pane windows provides good baseline systems, the interior aesthetics and original 1940s footprint require modernization to meet current standards.
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 7037, living area = 1030.
The expansive 7,037 sqft lot and detached 2-car garage offer significant opportunities for expansion or the addition of an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) to maximize property value.

The 3-bedroom layout is serviced by only one bathroom, which may be a significant drawback for modern families and could impact resale appeal.
