Condition Rating
Fair

The property, built in 1951, has received recent cosmetic updates such as newer plank flooring, fresh interior paint, baseboards, and recessed lighting, along with central air and heat, making it move-in ready. However, the kitchen features outdated wood cabinets, tiled countertops, and older appliances (except for a newer refrigerator). Both bathrooms also show dated styles with tiled countertops, older vanities, and vanity strip lighting. While functional and well-maintained, the kitchen and bathrooms would require minor to moderate updates to meet current aesthetic standards, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Recent Upgrades & Move-in Ready: The home features newer plank flooring, fresh interior paint, baseboards, and recessed lighting, indicating a well-maintained and updated interior ready for immediate occupancy.
Desirable Indoor-Outdoor Living: A spacious family room with open-beam ceilings, a stone fireplace, and sliding glass doors opens to a covered patio, creating an ideal setup for entertaining and seamless indoor-outdoor flow.
Year-Round Comfort: The property is equipped with central air and heat, ensuring comfortable living conditions throughout all seasons.
Generous Lot Size & Ample Parking: A premium lot size of 6006 sqft, coupled with a long driveway and a two-car garage, provides significant outdoor space and practical parking solutions.
Prime Location & School District: Located near several golf courses, bike paths, El Dorado Park, and within the desirable Carver Elementary boundary, offering excellent recreational opportunities and school access.

Cons

Potential for Dated Kitchen/Bathrooms: While other areas are updated, the description of the kitchen's 'ample wood cabinets' and lack of specific mention of bathroom renovations suggest these areas might be original or require modernization to match current trends.
Older Home Infrastructure: Built in 1951, the property's age, despite cosmetic updates, may imply potential for aging underlying infrastructure (e.g., plumbing, electrical systems) that could require future attention.
Price Adjustment & Market Value Discrepancy: The property has undergone multiple price reductions and its current list price is notably higher than the estimated market value, suggesting it may still be perceived as overpriced or has struggled to attract buyers at its initial price points.
