Condition Rating
Fair
The property, built in 1954, benefits from significant recent updates to major systems including HVAC, roof, electrical panel, and plumbing (all new within 2-10 years), which is excellent. However, the kitchen, while functional with some newer stainless steel appliances (oven, microwave), features visibly dated light wood cabinets, laminate countertops, and a tile backsplash. The flooring in the kitchen appears to be older linoleum/tile, and the living areas have carpet over original hardwood, suggesting cosmetic updates are needed. Bathrooms are not pictured but are likely similarly dated given the lack of mention of renovations. While the home's infrastructure is strong, the interior aesthetics, particularly in the kitchen and likely bathrooms, are significantly outdated and would require substantial renovation to meet modern buyer preferences, placing it in the 'Fair' category.
Pros & Cons
Pros
High Available Lot Utilization: The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 8276, living area = 1598.
Extensive System Upgrades: Major components like the water heater, HVAC, roof, electrical panel, plumbing, and ABS pipes have all been updated within the last 2 to 10 years, significantly reducing immediate maintenance concerns.
Lifetime Warranty on Exterior: The siding and leaf gutter downspouts come with a lifetime warranty, offering long-term peace of mind and value to the homeowner.
Functional Layout & Size: A single-story home with nearly 1600 sqft, 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and separate family and living rooms provides versatile and desirable living spaces.
Original Hardwood Floor Potential: Original hardwood floors are present under the carpet, offering a valuable opportunity for restoration to enhance aesthetic appeal and property value.
Convenient Location: The property boasts a convenient location with close proximity to shopping and easy access to the freeway, enhancing daily living and commute.
Cons
Dated Interior Finishes: While mechanical systems are updated, the description does not mention recent renovations to the kitchen or bathrooms, suggesting these areas may require cosmetic updates to meet modern buyer preferences.
Older Construction: Built in 1954, the home's age, despite significant system upgrades, may still be a consideration for buyers preferring newer construction or those anticipating potential age-related issues not covered by recent updates.
Mixed School Ratings: Two of the three listed nearby public schools (Encina Preparatory High School and Dyer-Kelly Elementary School) have lower ratings (2/10), which could be a deterrent for families prioritizing top-tier school districts.
