This Value-Add Residential Asset is listed at $350,000, representing a stable entry point aligned with its $343,977 Fair Market Value. Holding a Condition Rating of 4, the home features a recent cosmetic refresh with LVP flooring, though the primary upside lies in the unpermitted garage-to-studio conversion which provides significant bonus utility not included in the main square footage. The 6,098-square-foot lot and private patio offer ample outdoor space near Grant Union High School. This property is a strategic acquisition for Buy-and-Hold Investors or Owner-Occupants seeking a house-hack opportunity.

Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1984 (40 years old), the home features a recent cosmetic 'lipstick' renovation including LVP flooring and painted cabinetry. However, the kitchen and bathrooms remain dated with budget-grade finishes, and the unpermitted garage-to-studio conversion suggests potential issues with systems and structural compliance that require investigation and minor repairs.
The garage has been converted into a studio, providing additional functional square footage beyond the main house that can serve as a home office, guest suite, or potential rental unit.
Listed at $350,000, this 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home offers an affordable entry point into the Sacramento real estate market for first-time buyers or investors.
The property sits on a 6,098-square-foot lot, offering a spacious backyard for a single-story home, ideal for outdoor entertaining, gardening, or future site improvements.
The studio conversion was completed without permits, which may present challenges with financing, insurance, and future compliance with local building codes.
The property is served by several schools with low performance ratings, which could be a deterrent for families and may impact the long-term resale value.
Cute single story home on a large lot. Garage has been converted to a studio that is not included in the main house square footage. Unit was completed without permits; buyer to investigate all aspects of the property's condition and permit history.
No exterior & parking available.
