Built in 1949, this property has received recent cosmetic updates including fresh paint and newer flooring in the main living areas and basement. However, the kitchen features older-style wood cabinets, a mix of appliances (some dated, like the white double wall oven), and tile flooring that appears to be 15-20 years old. The main bathroom also shows dated tile work, though it is clean and functional. While move-in ready, the property requires minor updates to modernize the kitchen and bathrooms to current standards. The unpermitted finished basement also presents a potential issue for future buyers.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Significant Development/Expansion Potential: The property sits on a huge 18,731 sq ft lot, offering ample space for additions. Furthermore, there's an option to purchase an adjacent 11,700 sq ft vacant lot (MLS#41077603), making it an exceptional opportunity for developers or those seeking extensive land.
Generous Living Space: The main floor provides 2,098 sq ft of living space, complemented by a large, finished basement with a bedroom, effectively doubling the usable area and providing ample room for a large family.
Functional Layout & Bright Interior: The home features a functional open floor plan and boasts light-filled windows, contributing to a desirable and comfortable living environment.
Recent Cosmetic Update: The property was recently painted, offering a fresh aesthetic and reducing immediate cosmetic maintenance for a new owner.
Versatile Basement Space: The finished basement, despite being unpermitted, offers significant flexible space that can be utilized as a family room, additional living quarters, or potentially an ADU, adding considerable utility.

Cons

Unpermitted Basement Construction: The large finished basement with a bedroom was completed without permits, posing potential legal, safety, and financial risks, and may complicate financing or future resale.
Older Home Systems: Built in 1949, the property likely retains original or older systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that may require significant updates or replacement, incurring additional costs for a buyer.
Niche Buyer Appeal: The description highlights it as a 'great opportunity for developers or contractors,' suggesting it may not be move-in ready for all buyers and could require substantial investment or a specific vision to maximize its potential, potentially limiting the buyer pool.
