Condition Rating
Fair
Built in 1982, this property is well-maintained and functional, but shows its age in key areas. The kitchen features dated wood cabinets and an older range hood, though it has newer stainless steel appliances and laminate countertops. Bathrooms are clean and functional but have dated vanities, light fixtures, and tile. While some flooring has been updated (new carpet in one bedroom, LVP in another), and solar panels are a significant upgrade, the overall aesthetic requires cosmetic updates to meet current styles. It's move-in ready but would benefit from further renovation to modernize.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Prime Location & Convenience: Situated in one of Santa Cruz's sunniest neighborhoods, the property offers excellent walkability to local amenities such as Simpkins Swim Center, People's Coffee, and Sunny Cove.
Family-Oriented Community: The description highlights a 'friendly neighborhood vibe,' 'nearby parks,' and 'excellent schools,' making it an ideal environment for families to grow and thrive.
Desirable Coastal Lifestyle: Located in Santa Cruz with proximity to Sunny Cove, the home offers access to a sought-after coastal lifestyle and recreational opportunities.
Competitive Pricing: The listing price of $1.05M is below the estimated property value of approximately $1.092M, suggesting potential for immediate equity or a competitive offering.
Inviting Home Atmosphere: Described as a 'bright and inviting 3 bedroom, 2 bath home,' indicating a comfortable and ready-to-live-in space for prospective buyers.
Cons
Property Age: Built in 1982, the home is over 40 years old, which may suggest that some systems or finishes could be original and might require future updates or maintenance.
Undefined MLS Area: The MLS area is listed as '699 - Not Defined,' which could complicate precise market analysis and comparison with properties in clearly defined sub-markets.
Standard View: While the property 'has_view,' it is specified as a 'Neighborhood' view, which is less premium than properties offering ocean, mountain, or panoramic city views, potentially limiting its appeal to buyers prioritizing scenic vistas.
