Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1958, the home features recent cosmetic updates like newer carpet and stainless steel appliances. However, the kitchen cabinets and tile countertops are dated (15-30 year old style), and the visible wall heater indicates older HVAC systems. It is functional and move-in ready but requires modernization to meet current market standards.
The property features several key updates including newer carpet, an updated bathroom, and newer kitchen appliances, allowing for immediate occupancy without the need for immediate renovation.
The converted garage adds significant square footage and functionality, featuring dual ceiling fans and direct access to the backyard, making it an ideal space for a home office, gym, or family room.
Situated just one block from downtown Seaside with views of the bay, the home offers excellent proximity to local dining, beaches, and easy access to Highway 1 and Highway 68.
Despite having three bedrooms and over 1,500 square feet of living space, the home only features one bathroom, which may be a constraint for larger families or those who host guests.
The conversion of the garage into living space eliminates traditional covered parking and internal storage, which could be a drawback for buyers prioritizing vehicle protection or workshop space.
