Property is move-in ready.
Built in 1952, this home has undergone significant cosmetic updates, including fresh interior paint and wood laminate flooring throughout, making it move-in ready. The kitchen features updated white shaker-style cabinets and a newer stainless steel microwave, though the range is basic black and some elements like the exposed ductwork and microwave shelving are less modern. The bathroom has an updated vanity and sink, but the light fixture and mosaic tile backsplash appear dated. The cooling system relies on a roof-mounted evaporative cooler and wall-mounted AC units, rather than central air, indicating older underlying systems. While not a full, high-end renovation, the property is well-maintained and functional with no immediate renovation required.
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 7878, living area = 1100.
The home features fresh interior paint and wood laminate flooring throughout, providing a modern and move-in ready aesthetic with an abundance of natural light.
Situated on a generous corner lot with a large, covered patio and mature fruit trees, offering excellent outdoor living and entertaining space.
