Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1947, this home is well-maintained but significantly outdated, featuring original wood floors, older cabinetry, and dated tile in the kitchen and bathroom. While the property appears functional and livable, it requires cosmetic updates such as fresh paint and modern fixtures to meet current market standards. The single-bathroom configuration for a three-bedroom home and the presence of older wall heating units further support a 'fair' rating.
Situated on a desirable corner lot just one block from Barstow High School, this property offers exceptional convenience for families and staff, enhancing its rental and resale appeal.
Built in 1947, the home features charming original details and a private backyard sanctuary with mature trees, providing a unique aesthetic and serene atmosphere often missing in modern builds.
With a spacious 1,328 sq. ft. layout and a competitive price point, the property presents a significant opportunity for investors or handy homeowners to build equity through cosmetic upgrades.
The property requires immediate investment in paint and modern upgrades to meet current market standards, as noted in the listing's call for rejuvenation.
Featuring only one bathroom for a three-bedroom residence, the layout may be restrictive for larger families and could impact the home's competitiveness against more modern configurations.
With some paint and a few upgrades this home can be your forever home or a rental. Character and Style describe this home. Walking distance to the high school, or Stem Academy. There really is not much to do to get started, so do not pass this one by for the price.
