About this home
We found 3 Cons,5 Pros. Rank: price - $325.0K(5th), sqft - 358(5th), beds - 1(14th), baths - 1(45th).
Very private location close to Loch Lomond. 1931 Cabin can use a bit of TLC, but the location is wonderful, surrounded by the redwoods, but an unexpected amount of sunlight about the property and large fenced garden area. Seller has 2 additional lots that may be negotiated separately (~.8 acres and the other ~.5 acres) which feature many Redwoods, a year-round stream and lots of space to read or just enjoy the solitude. Henry Cowell State Park, Roaring Camp Railway are near by, and grocery, gas, restaurants are just minuets away.

Condition Rating
Poor
The property was built in 1931, making it 93 years old. The exterior images reveal severe neglect, weathered siding, visible debris, and a boarded-up window, indicating significant deferred maintenance and potential structural issues. The electrical meters and conduits also appear very old. The listing description states the '1931 Cabin can use a bit of TLC,' which, given the visual evidence and age, is a significant understatement. Without interior images, it's impossible to assess the kitchen and bathroom directly, but given the exterior condition and age, it's highly probable they are in a very poor, outdated, and potentially non-functional state, requiring substantial repairs and rehabilitation. The property likely requires extensive system replacements and major component repairs to be safe and comfortable, aligning with the 'Poor' condition criteria.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Exceptional Privacy & Natural Setting: The property boasts a very private location, surrounded by redwoods, offering a sense of solitude and tranquility.
Abundant Natural Light: Despite its redwood setting, the property receives an unexpected amount of sunlight, a desirable feature often lacking in such environments.
Expansive Outdoor Potential: Features a large fenced garden area and the significant opportunity to acquire two additional lots (~1.3 acres total) with redwoods and a year-round stream, offering substantial expansion or recreational possibilities.
Prime Recreational Location: Situated close to Loch Lomond, Henry Cowell State Park, and Roaring Camp Railway, making it ideal for outdoor enthusiasts.
Convenient Local Access: Despite its private feel, essential amenities like grocery, gas, and restaurants are just minutes away, balancing seclusion with practicality.
Cons
Extensive Renovation Required: The 1931 cabin 'can use a bit of TLC,' indicating a need for significant investment in repairs, upgrades, or a complete overhaul to meet modern standards.
Extremely Small Living Area: With only 358 sqft, 1 bed, and 1 bath, the property offers very limited living space, appealing to a niche market or as a secondary residence rather than a primary family home.
Significant Price Reduction History: A substantial price drop from $405,000 to $325,000 suggests potential overpricing initially or challenges in attracting buyers, which could raise questions about its market value or condition.
