More Insights

Built in 2002 (23 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 2002, is well-maintained with fresh exterior paint and some updated flooring (LVP in living areas). However, the kitchen features dated tile flooring, granite countertops, and a very outdated fluorescent light fixture, despite having painted cabinets and some newer stainless steel appliances. The secondary bathrooms also show their age with builder-grade wood vanities, laminate/cultured marble countertops, and strip lighting. While functional and move-in ready, these key areas require minor updates to align with current styles and preferences, placing it in the 'fair' category.

About this home

Solar included and paid off. Welcome to 1521 Arcola Avenue in the heart of Natomas Park, one of Sacramento's most desirable communities. Natomas Park has beautiful tree-lined streets and numerous parks as well as the largest public parks in Sacramento. This 4 bedroom 2.5 bath bat home sits on a spacious lot with a wide open backyard that is perfect for birthday parties, family gatherings, or simply relaxing outside, where you can pick fresh oranges, lemons, and pomegranates from your own trees. The home has fresh exterior paint and owned, paid off solar. Inside, you will find multiple living areas and a large open kitchen with ample cabinet storage, a pantry closet, and generous counter space. All bedrooms are comfortably sized, including a true primary suite with a walk in closet, a soaking tub, and a separate shower. The driveway is a major highlight with room for three or four cars off the street plus a two-car garage, which is a rare benefit in this community. Living here also means full access to The Club at Natomas Park, which offers pools, a gym, fitness classes, childcare, lounges, and year round community events. This layout is incredibly tough to find in one of the best corners of Natomas Park, a walk or short drive to multiple top-rated charter and public schools.

Pros & Cons

Pros

Paid-Off Solar System: The property includes a fully paid-off solar system, offering significant long-term energy savings and environmental benefits.
Exceptional Community Amenities: Residents gain full access to The Club at Natomas Park, featuring pools, a gym, fitness classes, childcare, lounges, and year-round community events, enhancing lifestyle and property value.
Spacious & Functional Backyard: The large, open backyard on a spacious lot is ideal for entertaining, family gatherings, and includes mature fruit trees (oranges, lemons, pomegranates).
Ample Parking & Garage: A major highlight is the large driveway with room for three to four cars, in addition to a two-car garage, which is a rare and valuable benefit in this community.
Desirable Location & Schools: Located in the highly sought-after Natomas Park community, known for its tree-lined streets, numerous parks, and proximity to multiple top-rated charter and public schools.

Cons

Ongoing Association Fees: The property is subject to a monthly association fee of $91, which adds to the overall cost of homeownership.
Potential for Dated Interior Finishes: Built in 2002, while the exterior has fresh paint and the kitchen/primary suite are highlighted, other interior areas (e.g., secondary bathrooms, general flooring) may feature original finishes that could benefit from modernization.
Lack of Specific HVAC Details: The description does not provide specific information regarding the age or condition of the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system, which is a key consideration for a home built in 2002.
