This Single Family Residence represents a High-Potential Investment Opportunity, listed at $899,000—positioned well above the $843,377 Fair Market Value by 6%.

Featuring vaulted open-beam ceilings and peaceful treetop views, the home offers significant lifestyle appeal near Aptos Village. This property is an ideal acquisition for Buy-and-Hold Investors or Owner-Occupants seeking to build equity through strategic cosmetic improvements.
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1980 (44 years old), the property is well-maintained but dated. The kitchen and bathrooms feature older cabinetry, square tile work, and white appliances consistent with original or 20+ year old styling. Systems appear aged, evidenced by the potbelly stove and wall heaters rather than central HVAC. While functional and move-in ready, the home requires cosmetic and system updates to meet modern standards.
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 8276, living area = 1119.
Ideally situated near Aptos Village, Rio Del Mar Beach, and Nisene Marks State Park, this home offers unparalleled access to local amenities, dining, and world-class outdoor recreation.
The interior features vaulted open-beam ceilings and large windows that flood the open-concept living area with natural light while framing serene redwood views.
Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 2, other record bedroom count = 3.
With only 1,119 square feet of living space, the home's compact footprint may be a drawback for buyers seeking more room or traditional storage options.
Having been on the market for over 60 days, the property may be facing pricing sensitivity or buyer hesitation compared to faster-moving listings in the area.
