Condition Rating
Fair
The property, built in 1950, presents a mixed condition. The kitchen has been updated with modern stainless steel appliances, wood cabinetry, and stone countertops, appearing functional and relatively current. However, the bathroom features very dated turquoise tile on the floor, walls, and vanity, along with older fixtures, indicating it has not been renovated in many decades. While the home appears well-maintained with clean interiors and functional spaces, the significant stylistic obsolescence of the bathroom prevents it from being classified as 'Good'. It is aged but maintained through regular upkeep and occasional updates, requiring minor cosmetic updates to achieve a more cohesive and contemporary feel.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Desirable Location: Located in Ventura, California, a highly sought-after coastal city known for its lifestyle and amenities.
Generous Lot Size: The 6,000 sqft lot provides ample outdoor space for potential landscaping, expansion, or recreational activities.
Single-Family Residence: As a single-family home, it offers privacy and is generally a preferred property type with strong appreciation potential.
Market Demand Indication: The 'Active Under Contract' status indicates the property has successfully attracted a buyer, reflecting market interest.
Bedroom Count: With 3 bedrooms, the property offers flexibility for families, guest rooms, or dedicated home office space.
Cons
Age of Property: Built in 1950, the home is over 70 years old, suggesting potential needs for updates to major systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) and general modernization.
Limited Bathroom Count: Only one bathroom for a 3-bedroom house can be a significant inconvenience for multiple occupants or a growing family.
Compact Interior Space: At 960 sqft, the interior living space is relatively small for a 3-bedroom home, which may feel cramped for some buyers seeking more spacious living.
