Condition Rating
Good

The property, built in 1928, is described as 'recently upgraded and completely turnkey.' The main cottage features hardwood flooring, fresh paint, newer stainless steel appliances in the kitchen (though cabinets appear to be painted older ones), updated plumbing, and air-conditioning, making it move-in ready. The detached studio also benefits from air-conditioning and bamboo flooring. While the studio's kitchen is notably dated with yellow countertops and older appliances, it is functional and does not require immediate repair. The overall condition, updated systems, and well-maintained primary living space align with the 'Good' criteria of being move-in ready with some updated components, even if not a full, recent top-to-bottom renovation.

Versatile Dual-Residence Configuration: Features a main cottage and a detached one-bedroom, one-bath studio, providing flexibility for living in one and leasing the other, or using the studio as a guest house, home office, or creative space.

Cons

Compact Overall Living Space: With a total of 1171 sqft for 3 beds and 2 baths split across two structures, the living space may feel compact for buyers seeking a larger primary residence or extensive interior room.
Age of Original Construction: Built in 1928, despite recent upgrades, the underlying age of the original cottage may present long-term maintenance considerations or limitations for significant structural modifications for some buyers.
Limited Lot Size: The 3300 sqft lot, while private, offers limited expansive outdoor space, which could be a drawback for buyers desiring a larger yard for extensive landscaping, recreation, or future expansion.
