More Insights
Built in 1931 (95 years old).
Condition: Built in 1931, this home is over 90 years old. While the exterior appears maintained, there is no mention of recent major renovations, and the property analysis explicitly notes 'Age and Potential for Updates.' Given its age and the absence of interior photos, it's highly probable that the kitchen, single bathroom, and major systems are outdated and would require significant updates to meet modern standards and preferences. It is tenant-occupied, indicating it is livable, but it shows clear signs of being aged and in need of modernization.

Versatile Detached Living Space: The additional detached 4th bedroom provides valuable flexibility for a home office, guest quarters, or potential rental income.
Convenient Neighborhood Amenities: Situated on a quiet street with immediate access to highly-rated schools (Pittsburg Senior High School just 0.2 miles away) and local shopping.
Accessible Price Point: Listed at $499,000, it represents a competitive and relatively affordable entry into the single-family home market in the region.

Cons
MLS Listing Discrepancy: Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 3, other record bedroom count = 2.
Single Bathroom Limitation: The property features only one bathroom, which may present practical challenges for a household with multiple occupants or guests.
Garage Conversion Impact: The conversion of the garage into an extra room eliminates dedicated covered parking and traditional storage space, which could be a drawback for some buyers.
Age and Potential for Updates: As a 1931 build, the home may require updates to its systems, infrastructure, or aesthetics to meet modern preferences and standards, implying potential future investment.
