Condition Rating
Fair
The property, built in 1942, is over 80 years old. While appearing structurally sound, the interior is significantly dated. The kitchen features very old-style blue tiled countertops and backsplash, and older cabinets, with no visible modern appliances. The bathroom has a newer vanity but extremely dated black and white checkered tiles. The carpet in the living areas and hallway is old and stained, requiring immediate replacement. The home is functional but shows clear signs of being outdated and needing cosmetic updates throughout, particularly in the kitchen, bathroom, and flooring.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Prime Location: Situated in an established neighborhood near downtown, offering convenient access to transportation and shopping, enhancing daily living.
ADU/Expansion Potential: The large lot provides significant opportunity for future expansion or the addition of an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU), increasing property value and utility.
Detached Two-Car Garage: A valuable asset for parking, storage, or potential conversion, adding practical flexibility for homeowners.
Ideal Starter Home: Marketed as an ideal starter home, it appeals to first-time buyers or those seeking an accessible entry point into homeownership.
Mature Neighborhood Ambiance: The presence of numerous trees in the neighborhood contributes to a pleasant, well-developed community feel and curb appeal.
Cons
Age of Property: Built in 1942, the home likely requires updates to systems, finishes, and energy efficiency to meet modern standards and buyer expectations.
Limited Living Space: With only 887 sqft and a single bathroom, the property offers compact living, which may not suit all buyer needs or preferences.
Listing Price vs. Estimated Value: The current list price is slightly higher than the property's estimated market value, which could impact buyer perception and negotiation leverage.
