Condition Rating
Good
Despite being built in 1952, this property has undergone extensive and relatively recent renovations, aligning with the 'Good' condition criteria. The kitchen and bathroom feature modern updates including shaker-style cabinets, light countertops, contemporary fixtures, and updated tiling, suggesting renovations within the last 5-15 years. The presence of recessed lighting, double-pane windows, and well-maintained laminated flooring throughout further supports a 'move-in ready' status with minimal visible wear and tear. While a wall heater is present, the overall condition reflects a well-maintained home with significant functional and aesthetic improvements.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Significant Income Potential: The property includes two separate, move-in ready studio units (2-bed/1-bath and 1-bed/1-bath) with documented rental history ($2,300 and $1,600), offering substantial cash flow or owner-occupant income opportunities.
Modern Interior Updates: Key updates such as recessed lights, double-pane windows, and laminated flooring enhance the property's aesthetic appeal and energy efficiency, reducing immediate renovation needs for a buyer.
Versatile Living Arrangement: The multi-unit configuration allows for flexible use, enabling an owner to live in one unit while renting out the others, or to maximize rental income by leasing all three units.
Ample Parking: A large driveway provides significant off-street parking, a valuable amenity, especially for a multi-unit property in an urban setting.
Convenient Location: The property is conveniently situated near schools, shopping, and offers easy access to freeways, making it highly desirable for commuters and families.
Cons
Limited Main House Bathroom Count: The primary residence features only one bathroom for three bedrooms, which can be a significant functional limitation and a deterrent for larger families or those desiring more convenience.
Age of Main Structure: Built in 1952, the main house is over 70 years old. While cosmetic updates are noted, potential buyers may have concerns regarding the condition of underlying systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical, roof) not explicitly mentioned as updated.
Recent Price Reductions: The property has undergone multiple price reductions from its original listing, which could suggest it was initially overpriced or indicate a lack of strong buyer interest at previous price points.
