Condition Rating
Fair
Built in 1950, this property shows its age despite recent cosmetic updates like a new roof and fresh paint. The main house features older hardwood and ceramic tile flooring, and the visible bathroom has a dated light fixture and overall aesthetic, though the shower enclosure appears more recent. The kitchen is not pictured, suggesting it may also be outdated. While there are two bonus rooms with newer, basic finishes (laminate flooring, basic white cabinets, pedestal sinks, and corner showers), these are explicitly stated as unpermitted, which is a significant drawback and potential liability. The property requires minor updates to bring the main living areas to current standards, aligning with a 'Fair' condition.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Income/Flexible Space Potential: Two detached bonus rooms offer significant versatility for potential rental income or extended family living, despite permitting challenges.
Recent Capital Improvements: A newly installed roof and fresh exterior/partial interior paint significantly reduce immediate maintenance concerns for a new owner.
Expansive Lot & Storage: A large 13,939 sqft lot provides ample outdoor space and practical storage solutions for vehicles like RVs, quads, and trailers.
Convenient Location: Proximity to Citrus Elementary School and major retail/entertainment hubs like Ontario Mills Mall enhances convenience and family appeal.
Charming Aesthetics: The property is described as a 'charming' home with well-maintained front and back yards, offering immediate curb appeal.
Cons
Unpermitted Structures: Significant portions of the detached bonus rooms are unpermitted (one entirely, the other's kitchen/bath), creating potential legal liabilities and limiting their official use or rental income without remediation.
Market Value Discrepancy: The current listing price is 9% above the estimated property value, coupled with multiple price reductions, indicating potential overpricing or market resistance.
Age-Related System Maintenance: As a 1950-built home, there's an inherent likelihood of needing updates or maintenance to older core systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical, HVAC) not explicitly covered by recent cosmetic improvements.
