Built in 1975, this home is well-maintained but shows its age. While the kitchen has granite countertops and the flooring has been updated, the bathrooms feature dated gold-tone fixtures and fluorescent light boxes. The presence of wallpaper borders and older ceiling fans indicates the property has not had a comprehensive renovation in over 20 years, placing it in the fair category.
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 8000, living area = 1976.
The property sits on a generous 8,000 sqft corner lot featuring a large side yard, covered patio, and mature fruit trees, offering exceptional outdoor utility and privacy.
The interior boasts high ceilings, beautiful wood floors, and unique built-in features like a wood bar and window seating, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere.
