Property is moderate renovation needed.
Originally built in 1940, the home features a dated 'country' kitchen with older cabinetry and appliances likely exceeding 25 years in age. While the exterior benefits from a newer metal roof and dual-pane windows, the interior finishes and reliance on a wood-burning stove for primary heat indicate the property is functional but requires significant cosmetic and system updates to meet modern standards.
The property features a newer lifetime metal roof and new dual-pane windows, providing long-term durability and improved energy efficiency while reducing immediate maintenance costs for the buyer.
The large, fenced corner lot is exceptionally well-equipped with gated RV parking, a dedicated workshop, multiple storage buildings, and established fruit trees, offering high utility for mountain living.
Situated just half a mile from Merlo Park and near the high lakes, this home offers an ideal balance of serene forest views and easy access to outdoor recreation, all within 20 minutes of Paradise.
The home relies primarily on a wood-burning stove for heat, which may be less convenient and require more manual effort than a modern central HVAC system.
With only one bathroom serving a 1,270-square-foot home, the layout may present functional challenges for families or those who frequently host guests.
