Property is moderate renovation needed.
The property was built in 1956 and, while it features recent cosmetic updates such as new carpet and laminate flooring, it remains dated. The presence of a wall heater suggests an older HVAC system, and the unlandscaped 'blank canvas' backyard along with the 60+ year age of the structure indicates a need for further modernization of core systems and potential kitchen/bath updates.
The property is ideally situated in a highly desirable neighborhood within walking distance to Downtown Vacaville and top-rated schools like Vacaville High.
Featuring 1,606 square feet with tall ceilings and two distinct living areas, the floor plan offers excellent flexibility for both daily living and entertaining.
The inclusion of a water softener, water filtration system, and solar panels provides immediate functional benefits and potential long-term utility savings.
The solar panels are leased rather than owned, which requires the buyer to assume a contract and may be a drawback for those seeking full ownership of energy systems.
The backyard is described as a blank canvas, indicating that the buyer will need to invest additional time and capital to landscape and develop the outdoor area.
