Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1951, this property has received recent exterior updates including a new roof and driveway. The interior features classic hardwood floors and fresh paint in many areas. However, the kitchen is significantly outdated with old tile countertops, backsplash, and basic appliances, explicitly noted in the listing as needing 'significant updates' to meet modern standards. One bathroom also features very dated tile in the shower/tub area. While functional and well-maintained in parts, the property requires substantial renovation in key areas, particularly the kitchen, to align with contemporary tastes and functionality, preventing it from being considered 'Good' despite its overall cleanliness and recent exterior improvements.
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 7841, living area = 1364.
Ideally situated in the heart of San Roque Gardens, offering convenient access to Loretto Plaza's shops, cafes, and parks, and a short golf cart ride to the Santa Barbara Golf Club.
Features one of the largest and most inviting yards in the neighborhood (7,841 sqft), perfect for gardening, al fresco dining, entertaining, and enjoying beautiful mountain views.
The kitchen, while sun-filled, is noted for its 'potential to refresh, reimagine, or thoughtfully expand,' suggesting it requires significant updates to meet modern standards.
Built in 1951, and despite recent roof and driveway upgrades, other core systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical, HVAC) may be original or require modernization, potentially incurring additional costs.
With 1,364 sqft, the interior living space is relatively modest, which might be a consideration for buyers seeking more expansive living areas, especially given the high price point.
