Condition Rating
Good
The property, built in 1948, has undergone significant recent updates, including a complete electrical update in 2017, a new A/C unit and ductwork in 2020, new dual-pane windows, and renovated main bathrooms. The images confirm the bathrooms are modern and well-appointed with glass showers and updated vanities. Hardwood and marble floors are present throughout. While the kitchen features older, traditional wood cabinets, it is functional with modern stainless steel appliances, a contemporary sink/faucet, and an updated island countertop, making it move-in ready. These extensive updates to major systems and key areas place the property firmly in the 'Good' category, as it's well-maintained and requires no immediate renovations, despite the kitchen not being fully modern.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Large, Versatile Lot: The expansive 24,324 sqft lot offers significant potential for an ADU, RV parking, and space to build a pool, providing future customization and value-add opportunities.
Extensive Recent System Upgrades: Key systems have been recently updated, including new dual-pane windows/sliding doors, updated electrical (2017), and a new A/C unit with ductwork (2020), reducing immediate maintenance concerns.
Renovated Interiors & Quality Finishes: Both main bathrooms have been renovated, and the property features desirable marble and wood flooring throughout, enhancing aesthetic appeal and move-in readiness.
Spacious and Functional Layout: With 4 large bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and two separate living areas, the home provides ample and flexible space suitable for various family needs and entertaining.
Practical Amenities & Secluded Setting: A 3-car garage, mature fruit trees, and a secluded location (connecting to two streets) offer convenience, charm, and a private retreat-like atmosphere.
Cons
Age of Original Construction: Built in 1948, despite significant updates, the property's underlying structure is older, which may lead to concerns about original infrastructure or require specific maintenance considerations for some buyers.
Unspecified Kitchen Renovation: While bathrooms are updated, the description does not explicitly mention a renovated kitchen, which is a common expectation for updated homes and could represent a significant future investment for buyers.
Ranch-Style Architecture: The ranch-style design, while functional, might not appeal to all buyers' preferences, potentially narrowing the target market compared to more contemporary or diverse architectural styles.
