Condition Rating
Fair
Built in 1949, this property is functional and livable as described, but the images reveal significant cosmetic and stylistic obsolescence. The kitchen features dated wooden cabinets, older white laminate countertops, and non-stainless steel appliances, indicating a need for a full renovation. The bathroom also appears very dated with an old vanity, tiled countertop, and basic fixtures. While some flooring might be newer wood-look tile, other areas like the wood-paneled living room are distinctly old-fashioned. The property requires substantial cosmetic updates to meet current market expectations, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria.
Pros & Cons
Pros
First-Time Buyer Suitability: Explicitly marketed as 'perfect for first-time buyers,' suggesting an accessible entry point into homeownership.
Generous Lot Size: At 6900 sqft, the property offers ample outdoor space for various uses, including potential expansion or landscaping.
Detached Two-Car Garage: Provides valuable parking, storage, and potential for future conversion into an ADU, adding significant value.
Customization Potential: The description highlights 'incredible potential for cosmetic upgrades,' appealing to buyers who wish to personalize and add value.
Outdoor Living Space: A dedicated patio 'perfect for gatherings' enhances the property's appeal for entertaining and outdoor enjoyment.
Cons
Significant Overpricing: The current list price of $799,999 is substantially higher than the estimated property value of $569,273, indicating it is significantly overpriced for the market.
Age of Property & Potential for Updates: Built in 1949, the home is 75 years old, which often implies older systems and the need for updates beyond cosmetic to meet modern standards.
Limited Bedroom/Bathroom Count: With only 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom, the property may not meet the needs of larger families or those desiring more living space, potentially limiting its buyer pool.
