Property is moderate renovation needed.
The property is well-maintained and move-in ready, but it largely reflects its 1980 construction with limited modern updates. The kitchen features dated tile countertops, older white appliances, and linoleum flooring. While the vaulted open-beam ceilings provide architectural appeal, the home lacks a modern central HVAC system, relying on a potbelly stove and wall heaters, and the overall interior finishes show signs of being outdated.
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, providing residents with easy access to local dining, shopping, and world-class outdoor recreation.
The home features desirable vaulted open-beam ceilings and large windows that maximize natural light and showcase the stunning surrounding redwood views.
Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 2, other record bedroom count = 3.
At 1,119 square feet, the living space is relatively compact for a single-family residence, which may be a constraint for growing families or those needing a home office.
The inclusion of a potbelly stove as a primary charm and warmth feature suggests the property may lack a modern, centralized HVAC system, potentially requiring future upgrades.
