Condition Rating
Good
This property offers two distinct living spaces. The rear ADU is newly renovated, featuring modern bathrooms with updated vanities, tiling, and fixtures, as well as recessed lighting and contemporary flooring in the bedroom. The description also highlights a 'beautiful kitchen' in the ADU, suggesting a high standard of renovation for this larger unit. While the front house, built in 1932, shows its age with an older-style kitchen (though with stainless steel appliances) and a dated bathroom, it appears functional and maintained. The overall condition is elevated to 'Good' due to the extensive and recent renovation of the ADU, making the property largely move-in ready with no immediate major renovations required, despite the front house potentially benefiting from further cosmetic updates.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Dual Dwelling / Income Potential: The property features two distinct homes on one lot, offering excellent potential for rental income or accommodating multi-generational living arrangements.
Newly Renovated ADU: The second home (ADU) is newly renovated, boasting a beautiful kitchen, an open-concept family room downstairs, and an upstairs laundry for modern convenience.
Extensive Parking Capacity: Beyond the 2-car garage, the property provides ample parking space for 8+ vehicles within a secure, gated compound, a significant advantage in urban areas.
Large Outdoor Living Space: The master bedroom in the ADU opens to one of the largest decks in the area, perfect for enjoying mornings and serene evenings.
Investment Opportunity: Explicitly marketed as both a great primary residence and a sound investment, leveraging its dual-home setup for potential returns.
Cons
Age of Original Structure: The front house, built in 1932, is the original structure and may require significant updates, renovations, or ongoing maintenance to match modern standards.
Recent Price Reductions: The property has undergone multiple price reductions from its original list price, which could indicate initial overpricing or challenges in market demand.
Limited Individual Unit Size: With a total of 1574 sqft split between a 1-bed/1-bath front house and a 3-bed/3-bath ADU, the individual unit sizes, especially the original home, may be considered small by some buyers.
