Property is move-in ready.
Although built in 1981, the property is well-maintained and move-in ready with significant recent capital improvements including a new roof, new siding, and new redwood decks. The interior features a functional, albeit dated, kitchen with older cabinetry and white appliances, but the overall condition is elevated by the structural updates and its current status as a licensed vacation rental.
The property features significant capital improvements including a new roof, new siding, new redwood decks, and a premium brick driveway, offering immediate value and reduced maintenance for the buyer.
With a bedroom and bathroom on each level and an active vacation rental license, the home is perfectly configured for multi-generational living or a turnkey investment opportunity.
Located in the coveted 'Top of the World' neighborhood, the home offers a serene connection to nature with expansive windows framing ocean views and frequent sightings of local wildlife.
The property has been active for over 330 days with multiple price reductions, which may lead to buyer concerns regarding its initial valuation or market positioning.
At 3,500 square feet, the lot is relatively compact for the area and price point, which may restrict outdoor privacy or future expansion possibilities.
