Condition Rating
Good
This property, built in 1962, is in good, move-in ready condition. The kitchen has been updated with stainless steel appliances, granite/quartz countertops, and modern wood cabinetry, appearing to be a renovation within the last 10-15 years. Hardwood flooring is well-maintained throughout most living areas. While the bathrooms are clean and functional, their fixtures, particularly the strip lighting and vanity styles, suggest an older renovation or more basic updates, likely 15-25 years ago. The property is described as 'beautifully maintained' and the images support this, showing a clean and functional home with some updated components, aligning with the 'Good' score criteria for a property that is move-in ready with no immediate renovation required, despite not having undergone a full recent renovation.
Pros & Cons
Pros
High Available Lot Utilization: The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 11326, living area = 1745.
Exceptional Location & Amenities: The property boasts an outstanding location, just blocks from top-rated Earl Legette Elementary School, Miller Park, local tennis courts, Sailor Bar, and the American River Parkway, offering unparalleled convenience and recreational access within a quiet neighborhood.
Private Backyard Oasis with Pool: A spacious backyard featuring a built-in pool and mature shade trees creates a highly desirable private oasis, perfect for relaxation, entertaining, and enjoying the California climate.
Well-Maintained Single-Story Layout: Described as 'beautifully maintained,' this 3-bedroom, 2-bath single-story home offers a functional and appealing open floor plan that is 'light and bright' throughout, catering to a broad range of buyers.
Generous Lot Size: With a substantial lot size of 11,326 sqft, the property provides ample outdoor space, enhancing privacy and offering potential for further landscaping or outdoor living enhancements.
Family-Friendly Environment: The combination of a quiet, established neighborhood, excellent proximity to a highly-rated elementary school, and abundant local parks and recreational facilities makes this an ideal setting for families.
Cons
Age of Construction: Built in 1962, while 'beautifully maintained,' the property's age suggests that major systems (e.g., HVAC, plumbing, electrical) may be original or older, potentially requiring future updates or higher maintenance costs.
Lack of Specific Interior Modernization: The description highlights general appeal ('light and bright,' 'open floor plan') but lacks specific mention of recent high-value interior renovations such as updated kitchens or bathrooms with contemporary finishes, which some buyers may expect.
Ongoing Pool Maintenance Costs: While a significant amenity, the built-in pool entails regular maintenance expenses (cleaning, chemicals, repairs) and increased utility costs, which could be a deterrent for budget-conscious buyers or those not desiring pool ownership.
