Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1959, the home is functional but dated, featuring older oak cabinetry, worn carpets, and 15-30 year old tile work in the kitchen and bathrooms. While it has minor updates like granite countertops and fresh interior paint, the weathered exterior patio cover and aged mechanical systems indicate the property is maintained but requires modernization to meet current standards.
Situated at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, the property offers enhanced privacy, a safe environment for families, and a long driveway providing ample off-street parking.
Its close proximity to Biola University and major shopping hubs makes this an ideal candidate for rental income or long-term equity growth in a desirable neighborhood.
The presence of original hardwood flooring underneath the existing carpet offers a significant opportunity for a high-impact, low-cost aesthetic upgrade.
Built in 1959, the home may require further modernization of its systems and layout to meet the expectations of contemporary buyers.
