Property is moderate renovation needed.
The property is a 1942 build that appears well-maintained but is significantly outdated by modern standards. The kitchen features vintage cabinetry, older tile work, and dated wallpaper, while the living areas show original hardwood flooring with visible wear and staining.

While the home is functional and habitable, it requires cosmetic updates and modernization of its mid-century finishes and systems to meet current market expectations.
The oversized 6,098 square foot lot is significantly larger than neighboring parcels, offering enhanced privacy and ample space for a future ADU or garden.
