Condition Rating
Good
Despite being built in 1959, this property has received significant functional updates that make it move-in ready. Key improvements include modern mini-split AC units in the bedrooms for efficient cooling/heating, updated laminate/LVP flooring throughout visible areas, and solar panels for energy efficiency. The bathroom appears clean and updated, though with basic fixtures. While the exterior is dated and the kitchen's condition is not visible, the substantial system upgrades and interior cosmetic updates elevate its condition beyond 'Fair', indicating a well-maintained home with functional modern amenities, even if further cosmetic enhancements might be desired.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Proximity to UC Riverside: Located just 1.5 miles from UC Riverside, making it highly attractive for students, faculty, or investors seeking rental income.
ADU Potential / Versatile Bonus Room: The converted garage offers a spacious bonus room with a private entrance, ideal for a home office, family room, or potential Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU), significantly enhancing property utility and value.
Large Lot with Pool & Entertainment Space: Situated on a large corner lot, the property boasts a sparkling pool, covered patio, and ample space for outdoor entertaining, appealing to lifestyle buyers.
Broad Market Appeal: The property is explicitly marketed as a great opportunity for both owner-occupants and investors, indicating wide market desirability.
Ample Parking & Corner Lot Benefits: A long gated driveway provides abundant parking, and its corner lot position offers increased privacy and curb appeal.
Cons
Age and Potential for Updates: Built in 1959, the property's age and the phrase 'Bring your ideas and make it your own!' suggest it may require significant cosmetic or functional updates to meet modern buyer expectations.
Converted Garage: While versatile, the garage conversion means the property lacks traditional covered parking or dedicated garage storage, which can be a drawback for some buyers.
No Specific View: The property details indicate 'view: None', meaning it does not offer any notable scenic views that could add to its perceived value.
