Condition Rating
Fair
Built in 1923, this property shows signs of regular maintenance but features significantly outdated kitchen and bathroom styles, likely from renovations 15-30 years ago. The kitchen has older wood cabinets, dated laminate/tile countertops, and older appliances. The bathroom features dated tile flooring and basic fixtures. While the hardwood floors in other areas appear well-maintained, the overall aesthetic and key functional areas require minor to moderate updates to meet current standards. It is livable but not move-in ready without aesthetic improvements.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Prime Location: Excellent location in the highly sought-after heart of Hillcrest, offering walking distance to shopping, hospitals, and restaurants, enhancing desirability and convenience.
Significant Development Potential: Zoned RM-4-10 with historically cleared proposed plans for an 8-unit, 3-story development, making it an exceptional opportunity for developers.
Corner Lot Advantage: Positioned on a corner lot, providing enhanced visibility, potential for better natural light, and flexible access, which is valuable in an urban setting.
Good Condition & Versatile Space: The house is in great condition and includes an additional room convertible to a bedroom, plus a converted garage bonus room/studio, adding significant functional versatility.
Ample Off-Street Parking: Features plenty of off-street parking, a highly desirable and valuable amenity in a dense urban neighborhood like Hillcrest.
Cons
Higher List Price vs. Estimated Value: The current listing price is 7% above the property's estimated market value, which could indicate an aggressive pricing strategy and potentially impact buyer interest or negotiation.
Compact Interior Footprint: With 1,029 SF, the interior living space is relatively compact, which might be a limitation for buyers seeking larger homes or families requiring more room.
Older Property Age: Built in 1923, the property's age, despite being in great condition, may imply potential for future maintenance related to older systems or infrastructure updates.
