Property is moderate renovation needed.
The property is a 1926 cottage that is functional but significantly outdated. While the listing notes essential infrastructure updates to the electrical and plumbing systems, the interior aesthetics—including the oak kitchen cabinetry, laminate flooring, and older light fixtures—reflect a lack of recent cosmetic renovation. The home is well-maintained but requires modernization to meet current market standards.
Situated in a highly desirable neighborhood, this property offers exceptional convenience with immediate access to local dining, beautiful parks, and major freeways.
The home features significant mechanical improvements, including updated electrical systems and copper water lines, reducing immediate capital expenditure for the buyer.
Built in 1926, this cottage maintains its historic appeal with a welcoming front porch and a timeless layout that captures the quintessential East Sacramento aesthetic.
Lot size discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing lot size in square feet =3049, other record lot size in square feet = 3129.
At just 910 square feet with a single bathroom, the compact interior may be a constraint for growing families or those requiring a dedicated home office.
The 3,049-square-foot lot offers minimal outdoor space, which limits landscaping possibilities and potential for future structural expansions or ADU additions.
This delightful two bedroom, one bath cottage offers classic East Sacramento charm with modern convenience. A welcoming front porch leads into a spacious living room, an inviting kitchen, and two generously sized bedrooms. The owner has updated the water lines to copper and the electrical. If convenience is what you're after, this location is hard to beat. You'll be just minutes from the freeway, local dining, beautiful parks, and plenty of entertainment options-everything you need right at your fingertips.
