Condition Rating
Fair
Built in 1953, this property is over 50 years old. While it appears to have had some updates, particularly in the kitchen and bathroom, these renovations are now significantly dated (likely 15-30 years old). The kitchen features older wooden cabinets, black appliances, and dated tile flooring. The bathroom has a one-piece fiberglass tub/shower unit and similarly dated tile. The overall condition suggests the home is functional and maintained, but requires substantial cosmetic updates to meet current standards and appeal. There are no visible signs of major structural issues or unlivability, placing it above 'Poor' or 'Tear-down', but far from 'Good' or 'Excellent' due to the age of the property and its outdated features.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Desirable Coastal City Location: Situated in Oxnard, California, offering access to coastal amenities and a generally robust real estate market.
Generous Lot Size: A 6,000 sqft lot provides significant outdoor space for landscaping, recreation, or potential future expansion.
Single-Family Home Appeal: As a detached single-family residence, it offers privacy and independence, a highly desirable property type.
Accessible Price Point: Listed at $490,000, it presents a relatively affordable entry opportunity into the competitive Southern California housing market.
Versatile 3-Bedroom Layout: The three-bedroom configuration caters to various buyer needs, from small families to individuals seeking extra space or a home office.
Cons
Significant Property Age: Built in 1953, the home is over 70 years old, indicating a high likelihood of needing substantial updates to major systems and overall modernization.
Limited Bathroom Capacity: With only one bathroom for three bedrooms, the property presents a functional challenge for multiple occupants and may deter many family buyers.
Prolonged Market Duration: An on-market date of August 2020 suggests the property has struggled to attract a buyer for an extended period, potentially due to pricing, condition, or other undisclosed issues.
