Condition Rating
Poor
Built in 1957, this property is a 'diamond in the rough' as described, requiring substantial repairs and rehabilitation. The kitchen features extremely outdated cabinets, worn countertops, and old appliances, needing a complete overhaul. Bathrooms are largely original or very old, with only one having a slightly newer vanity that doesn't elevate the overall condition. Flooring consists of old, worn ceramic tiles and heavily stained linoleum. The heating system is an old wall unit, and there's no central AC. The overall interior shows significant wear, deferred maintenance, and severely outdated styles, making it very uncomfortable to live in its current state and necessitating extensive system replacements and cosmetic updates.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Large Lot & ADU Potential: The generous 6,000 sq ft lot provides ample space for expansion, landscaping, and significant potential for adding an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU), enhancing future value.
High Investment Upside: Explicitly positioned as a 'diamond in the rough' with 'real upside' for 'savvy investors' or 'hands-on homeowners,' ideal for a flip or long-term hold.
Versatile Additional Spaces: Features a partially converted 1-car garage, an enclosed patio, and a versatile bonus room, offering flexible options for living, work, or recreation.
Desirable Neighborhood Location: Located on a 'Quiet Street' within a 'well-located neighborhood' in Santa Ana, contributing to its long-term appeal and potential for appreciation.
Functional Bedroom Count: Offers a practical 3-bedroom layout, a highly sought-after configuration for families or rental income potential.
Cons
Extensive Renovation Required: Marketed as a 'diamond in the rough' and a 'project,' indicating the property will require significant capital investment and labor for modernization and repairs.
Age of Property: Built in 1957, the home likely has original systems and finishes, which may necessitate costly updates to plumbing, electrical, HVAC, and aesthetics to meet modern standards.
Limited Interior Square Footage: With only 988 sqft of living space, the interior is relatively compact for a 3-bedroom home, potentially limiting appeal for buyers desiring more spacious living areas.
