Condition Rating
Poor
Built in 1956, this property shows significant age and a lack of substantial modern updates. The kitchen features dated cabinets and countertops, despite a newer backsplash, indicating a partial and cosmetic update rather than a full renovation. The single bathroom is very outdated with old tile and fixtures. A major concern is the absence of central air conditioning, with multiple window AC units visible, suggesting a significant and costly HVAC system upgrade is needed for modern comfort. Flooring throughout is a mix of worn tile, laminate, and carpet. While the home appears structurally sound, the extent of necessary renovations to the kitchen, bathroom, and especially the HVAC system, along with general cosmetic updates, pushes it into the 'poor' category, requiring substantial rehabilitation to meet current living standards.
Pros & Cons
Pros
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 = 13504, living area = 1366.
Expansive Lot: The property boasts a substantial 13,504 sqft lot, providing ample space for outdoor activities, gardening, and significant potential for future expansion.
Family-Friendly Location: Its convenient location near an elementary school makes it highly attractive for families with young children, enhancing its appeal and marketability.
Development Potential: The large lot explicitly offers opportunities for 'future expansion,' allowing buyers to add value through additions or accessory dwelling units (ADUs).
Desirable City Lights View: The property features a 'City Lights' view, which is a premium amenity that enhances aesthetic appeal and potential resale value.
Charming Home Appeal: Described as a 'charming' home, it likely offers a welcoming aesthetic and a sense of character that can appeal to a broad range of buyers.
Cons
Single Bathroom: The home features only one bathroom for three bedrooms, which can be a significant functional limitation and inconvenience for families or multiple occupants.
Property Age: Built in 1956, the property is older, suggesting that major systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) and finishes may be original or outdated, potentially requiring immediate or future investment for upgrades.
Potential for Outdated Interiors: Given its age, the interior aesthetics and functionality may not align with modern buyer preferences, potentially necessitating renovation costs to update the space.
