Condition Analysis

Fair
TeardownExcellent
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1990, this 36-year-old home is well-maintained and functional but remains largely dated. The kitchen has received a partial cosmetic refresh with updated countertops and a subway tile backsplash, but the bathrooms retain original 1990s features like brass shower enclosures and older tile work. Popcorn ceilings and original oak built-ins throughout indicate it is move-in ready but would benefit from further modern updates.
PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES
- High Available Lot Utilization
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 10943, living area = 2088.
- Outdoor Oasis
The property features a large 10,943 sqft lot equipped with a private swimming pool and a spacious covered patio, providing an ideal environment for outdoor entertaining in the Bakersfield climate.
- Ample Storage and Parking
With a rare 3-car garage and extensive built-in cabinetry throughout the home, including a dedicated laundry room with a sink, the property offers exceptional organizational space and utility.
CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- MLS Listing Discrepancy
Lot size discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing lot size in square feet =10943, other record lot size in square feet = 10890.
- Potential for Modernization
Built in 1990, the home features original architectural details and a brick fireplace that may feel dated to modern buyers, potentially requiring further cosmetic investment beyond the updated kitchen countertops.
- Limited Bedroom Count
At 2,088 square feet, the home only offers three bedrooms, which may be a competitive disadvantage for larger families who typically expect four bedrooms in a property of this size and price range.
