Despite being built in 1936, the property has been 'beautifully remodeled' with a 'modern interior remodel,' featuring high ceilings, bamboo floors, and high-end Fisher & Paykel appliances. This indicates a significant and recent renovation, making the home move-in ready with contemporary finishes. The exterior, as seen in the image, also appears well-maintained. While the original structure is old, the extensive updates bring its current condition to a high standard, aligning with a property extensively renovated within the last 5 to 15 years.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Exceptional Natural Setting: The property offers a unique and private retreat nestled among Redwoods, featuring a year-round creek with swimming holes and a large deck, providing a serene and picturesque environment.
Modern Interior Remodel: Recently remodeled with high ceilings, bamboo floors, and Fisher & Paykel appliances, the home presents a contemporary and move-in ready interior despite its original build year.
Spacious Lot Size: With a generous lot size of 29,621 sqft, the property offers ample outdoor space, privacy, and potential for further landscaping or outdoor amenities.
High Ceilings & Natural Light: The interior benefits from abundant natural light and high ceilings, creating an open and airy feel that enhances the living experience in a compact space.
Functional Additional Spaces: The inclusion of a sleeping loft and a lower level with storage and a large workshop area adds significant versatility and utility to the home.
Cons
Compact Living Space: At only 572 sqft with 1 bedroom and 1 bathroom, the property offers very limited living space, which significantly narrows its appeal to a specific buyer demographic (e.g., singles, couples, or as a vacation home).
Age of Structure: Built in 1936, despite recent remodels, the underlying older construction may present long-term maintenance considerations or potential challenges with insurance and financing for some buyers.
Potential for Remote Accessibility: Described as a 'private get away among the Redwoods,' the location may imply a more secluded or less accessible setting, which could be a drawback for daily commuting or convenient access to urban amenities and services.
