Property is moderate renovation needed.
This 1939 property is functional but significantly outdated, featuring 1970s-style wood paneling, popcorn ceilings, and older linoleum flooring. The kitchen lacks modern built-in cabinetry, and the single bathroom is dated. Functional obsolescence is present, evidenced by laundry machines located inside a bedroom and an old wall-mounted heating unit. While the home is habitable, the listing's emphasis on 'TLC' and 'deferred maintenance' confirms it requires minor to moderate updates to meet current market standards.
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 7250, living area = 1360.
The generous 7,250 sq ft lot and existing detached structure provide a prime opportunity for ADU conversion, offering potential for rental income or multi-generational living.
The property features dedicated RV parking and a carport, a highly sought-after amenity that provides significant utility for homeowners with recreational vehicles or multiple cars.
Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 4, other record bedroom count = 3.
A 4-bedroom floor plan serviced by only a single bathroom is a significant functional drawback for modern families and may necessitate costly plumbing additions to improve marketability.
The property is explicitly noted as needing 'TLC,' indicating that buyers will need to budget for immediate capital expenditures to address repairs and modernization.
Hidden in the heart of San Bernardino lies an opportunity that rarely comes around—and never lasts long. This charming 4-bedroom, 1-bath home sits on a generous 7,200 sq ft lot and is filled with character waiting to be brought back to life. With just the right touch of TLC, this property could be transformed into something truly special. The expansive lot opens the door to exciting ADU potential, perfect for those with vision to expand, create additional income, or build multi-generational living. The property also features RV parking, a carport, and a detached structure that may be ideal for conversion into a guest house, studio, or additional living space (buyer to verify). Homes with this much potential, space, and flexibility rarely stay available for long—and once this one is gone, it will be someone else’s vision realized. Priced to sell, this is the kind of opportunity buyers regret missing. If you’ve been waiting for a property with character, land, and future potential, this may be the one you wish you had acted on sooner.
