Analysis of 2175 Robinson Street, Oroville, California 95965 is currently available with a list price of $689,800. The property maintains a Fair Condition Rating (50/100), suggesting the property is in acceptable condition with potential for value enhancement through selective updates and improvements. Located in a high-demand neighborhood within the Oroville Unified School District, this asset is categorized as a low-risk, high-reward acquisition suitable for both Buy-and-Hold Investors and Owner-Occupants willing to undertake light renovation work.
Property is moderate renovation needed.
This 1883 historic estate is well-maintained and preserves its original character, featuring vintage elements such as a 1940s O'Keefe & Merritt stove, claw-foot tubs, and period-specific plumbing. While the property is functional and includes updated outdoor amenities like a pool and Bocce court, the interior systems and fixtures are stylistically outdated and do not reflect a recent full-scale renovation, placing it in the 'Fair' category based on age and maintenance history.
The 1883 Goldstein Home features rare Craftsman finishes, original pocket doors, a widow's walk, and unique access to Oroville’s historic tunnel system, offering irreplaceable character and charm.
With over 4,400 square feet and a flexible layout, the estate is ideally suited for high-income uses such as a Bed & Breakfast, Airbnb, or a boutique event venue.
The property boasts an entertainment-ready landscape including a swimming pool, Bocce Ball court, pergola, and fire pit, providing a private resort-like atmosphere in a downtown location.
As a structure dating back to 1883, the home likely requires specialized and potentially costly upkeep to maintain its historic integrity and vintage systems.
A mismatch between county records (5-bed/3-bath) and the current physical layout (4-bed/2.5-bath) may present challenges for traditional financing or appraisal valuations.
County records indicate this multistory historic home is a 5-bedroom 3-bath. The seller currently shows the original 1883 Goldstein Home residing on the original Belding/Hewitt Estate as a 4 bed 2.5 bath. Do you need 5, 6 or 7 bedrooms? Worried about furnishing such a big home with unique antiques? Do you need an in-law home/ADU or rental income? This downtown yet secluded estate is FOR SALE. Bed & Breakfast, Air B&B, venue…??? Buy the whole 4-parcel estate $950K. Just want the big house with 2 parcels (nearly an acre)-$695K. This historic home looks to be a massive 2 story but that would dismiss the dumbwaiter accessible basement which is part of downtown Oroville’s historic tunnel system. It would also dismiss the partially finished full height 300+ sf attic & the roof access to the widow’s walk & the best views in town! Craftsman finishes like 7’ French doors, crown moldings, classic wainscoting w/ chair-rail, vintage floors, ready for the Queen's decent staircase, multiple fireplaces, claw-foot tub, tall tank toilet, with marble, granite, porcelain throughout, tall ceilings, multi-use rooms, formal dining, study, master suite, & grand entrance. YES! There are features you must see –1940’s O’Keefe & Merit gas stove, coffered/embossed ceilings, mirrored carrara marble loo with a 1796 pillbox toilet, vintage 6’ double hung windows, original pocket doors & beautiful exterior w/ entertainment-oriented landscaping (fountain, fire pit, barbeque area, Bocce Ball court, pergola)+pool. The estate comes with a grand story and lots of history.
