Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1964, the home has received recent cosmetic 'lipstick' updates including fresh interior paint and newer flooring. However, the kitchen and bathrooms are significantly dated with older oak cabinetry and tile countertops (>20 years). The presence of a wall-mounted AC unit suggests a lack of modern central HVAC, and the unfinished garage reflects the home's original age, requiring further modernization of systems and wet areas.
The home features a versatile enclosed sunroom and a large upstairs bonus area, providing ample space for a home office, game room, or an expanded primary suite.
The generous 7,259-square-foot lot offers significant outdoor potential, including room for a pool, gardening, or the addition of an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU).
Situated in the sought-after Fairmont neighborhood, the property is ideally located near Mile Square Park, top-rated schools, and is just a short drive to Huntington Beach.
The property does not offer any significant views, which may be a drawback for buyers seeking panoramic or elevated vistas at this price point.
Originally built in 1964, the home may require further modernization of core systems or structural updates beyond the recent cosmetic improvements like paint and flooring.
