Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1958 with renovations that appear to be 15-25 years old. While the home is move-in ready with newer carpet and stainless appliances, the kitchen features dated oak cabinets and tile countertops, and the heating is provided by an older wall unit rather than modern central HVAC.
Situated just one block from downtown Seaside and Broadway Avenue, the property offers exceptional walkability and quick access to the Monterey Peninsula's beaches, restaurants, and major transit corridors like Highway 1.
The home features several key updates including a modernized bathroom, newer kitchen appliances, and fresh carpeting, providing a turnkey opportunity for first-time buyers or investors.
The converted garage significantly expands the functional square footage, offering a large secondary living area with dual ceiling fans and direct access to an expansive backyard blank canvas.
With three bedrooms and over 1,500 square feet of living space, the presence of only one bathroom may be a significant inconvenience for families and could impact long-term resale value.
The conversion of the garage into living space means the property lacks traditional covered parking and secure indoor storage, which is often a high-priority requirement for buyers in this market.
Welcome to 1140 Palm Avenue; Move-In Ready in the Heart of Seaside. Opportunity meets comfort in this charming 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom home, ideally situated just one block from Broadway Avenue and the heart of downtown Seaside. With updates already done, all you need to do is unpack. Inside, you'll find newer carpet, an updated bathroom, and newer kitchen appliances; all complemented by a classic brick fireplace that anchors the living space with warmth and character. The converted garage adds generous bonus living space with newer carpet, dual ceiling fans, and a sliding glass door that opens directly to the expansive backyard; a rare find and a blank canvas ready for your vision. Whether you're dreaming of a garden, an outdoor entertaining space, or a play area, there's room to make it your own. All of this just minutes from the beaches, restaurants, and recreational offerings of the Monterey Peninsula; with easy access to the 1 and Highway 68. Whether you're a first-time buyer, downsizing, or looking for a smart investment, 1140 Palm Avenue checks all of the boxes.
