Condition Rating
Fair
Built in 1983, this property is well-maintained and move-in ready, but the kitchen and bathrooms are significantly dated. The kitchen features original-style oak cabinets, laminate countertops, older black/white appliances, and a dated fluorescent light fixture. Bathrooms also show dated vanities, integrated sinks, and strip lighting. While the main level has updated laminate flooring and a mosaic backsplash in the kitchen, these are minor updates and do not constitute a full renovation. The overall aesthetic is functional but outdated, requiring substantial cosmetic updates to meet current standards.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Move-in Ready Condition: The property is explicitly described as 'move-in ready,' offering immediate occupancy without the need for extensive initial renovations, which is highly appealing to many buyers.
Prime Location & Accessibility: Situated in the 'heart of Sacramento' and 'conveniently situated near shopping, dining, and major commuter routes,' providing excellent access to amenities and transportation.
Versatile Loft Space: The inclusion of a versatile loft space adds significant flexibility for use as a home office, additional living area, or potential third bedroom, enhancing the home's functionality.
Low-Maintenance Backyard: The property features a low-maintenance backyard area, ideal for those seeking outdoor space without extensive upkeep, perfect for relaxing or entertaining.
Competitive Price Point: Listed at $299,999, this property offers a competitive entry point, especially considering it sold for $350,000 in January 2024, potentially representing a strong value proposition for buyers.
Cons
Low Available Lot Utilization: The property has a small lot size, more than 70 percent of which is taken by its living area. lot size in square feet = 1590, living area = 1382.
High Monthly HOA Fee: A monthly association fee of $340 is a significant recurring cost that can impact affordability and long-term ownership expenses for potential buyers.
Low-Rated Local Schools: The closest high school and elementary school (Encina Preparatory High School and Dyer-Kelly Elementary School) both have a rating of 2, which may be a deterrent for families prioritizing school quality.
Age of Property & Potential for Updates: Built in 1983, the property is over 40 years old, which, despite being 'move-in ready,' may imply older systems (HVAC, plumbing, electrical) and finishes like the carpeted upper level that could require future updates or maintenance.
