Condition Rating
Good

Despite being built in 1946, the property has undergone significant and relatively recent renovations, as evidenced by the 'updated kitchen and bathrooms, central air and heat, double-pane windows, canned lighting, ceiling fans, and updated flooring' mentioned in the description. The front house kitchen features white beadboard cabinets, subway tile backsplash, and modern appliances, presenting a clean and appealing aesthetic. While the back unit's kitchen and bathroom are more basic in style, they appear functional and well-maintained. The presence of central HVAC and double-pane windows are key upgrades for a home of this age. The property is move-in ready with no immediate major renovations required, aligning with a 'Good' condition score.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Prime Old Town Seal Beach Location: Situated in the highly desirable Old Town Seal Beach, offering exceptional walkability to the beach, pier, restaurants, and shops, fostering a unique small-town community feel.
Income Potential / Multi-Unit Configuration: Features a main 2-bedroom, 1-bath home plus a separate 2-bedroom, 1-bath unit above the garage, providing excellent potential for rental income or multi-generational living.
Extensively Updated Interiors: Both units boast updated kitchens and bathrooms, central air and heat, double-pane windows, and modern finishes, ensuring a move-in ready and comfortable living experience.
Ample Garage & Utility Space: Includes a large two-car garage with a dedicated laundry area and workspace, a significant advantage for storage and functionality in a beach community.
Charming Outdoor Living Spaces: Offers both a welcoming front patio for community interaction and a private back patio, ideal for entertaining, BBQs, and enjoying the coastal climate.

Cons

Compact Lot Size: The 2500 sqft lot is relatively small, which may limit outdoor space for extensive landscaping or future expansion possibilities.
Modest Total Square Footage for Price: With a combined living area of 1254 sqft, the property's size is modest, especially when considering the high list price, potentially appealing to a niche buyer seeking location over expansive space.
Older Construction: Built in 1946, despite extensive updates, the property is an older structure which may entail ongoing maintenance considerations typical of homes of this age.
