Condition Rating
Fair
The property was built in 1966, making it 58 years old. While it appears well-maintained and move-in ready, the kitchen and bathrooms are significantly outdated in terms of style, materials, and appliances (e.g., white appliances, basic laminate countertops, older cabinet styles, standard tile in bathrooms). These areas likely saw renovations 20-30 years ago, fitting the 'Fair' category's description of an aged home maintained through regular upkeep, where major components are functional but show signs of being outdated and require minor updates or repairs to meet modern standards.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Beach Proximity: The property is exceptionally close to Rio del Mar beach, located only 11 houses away, offering unparalleled access to coastal living.
Walkable Amenities: Enjoy a flat, easy walk to essential amenities including a deli, restaurant, coffee shop, and convenience store, enhancing daily convenience.
Desirable Location: Nestled in the highly sought-after city of Aptos, known for its charming atmosphere and coastal appeal.
Unique Architectural Feature: Features a reverse floor plan with an open-beamed high ceiling in the living room, adding character and maximizing light and space upstairs.
Outdoor Utility: Includes a fenced backyard with an 8x15 foot outbuilding, providing valuable space for storage, crafts, or a potential home office.
Cons
Potential Overpricing: The current list price of $1,250,000 is significantly higher than the estimated property value of $1,073,672.9, which may deter potential buyers or necessitate a price adjustment.
Older Construction: Built in 1966, the property is over 50 years old, and the description does not mention significant recent updates, suggesting potential needs for system or aesthetic renovations.
Compact Lot Size: With a lot size of only 1,960 square feet, the property offers limited outdoor space, which might be a consideration for buyers seeking larger yards or expansion potential.
