Property is moderate renovation needed.
While the home is well-maintained and functional, it is aesthetically dated with a kitchen featuring tile countertops and older cabinetry. Key systems are aging, with the HVAC from 2007 (17 years old) and the repipe from 2009 (15 years old) approaching the end of their prime lifecycle, fitting the criteria for a property needing minor updates.
Middle School: Rancho San Joaquin Middle School (9/10). High School: University High School (9/10).
Situated within the prestigious University High School boundary and close to UCI, this property offers access to some of the highest-rated schools in the district, ensuring strong long-term investment value.
The home features unobstructed views and direct access to 47 acres of community greenbelts and parks, providing a serene, expansive outdoor atmosphere that is highly sought after in University Park.
The property has a small lot size, more than 70 percent of which is taken by its living area. lot size in square feet = 3200, living area = 2244.
While the home is turnkey, the HVAC system was installed in 2007 and may be approaching the end of its typical functional lifespan, potentially requiring future capital expenditure.
The 3,200 sqft lot is relatively small for a home of this size, resulting in limited private yard space for buyers who prioritize large, enclosed outdoor areas over community greenbelts.
