This Spacious Single Family Residence represents a Strong Value Opportunity, listed at $1,599,000—positioned well below the $1,719,879 Fair Market Value by 7%. This valuation gap offers $120,879 in Instant Equity. While the home holds a Condition Rating of 4, requiring modernization, its 2,970 sqft layout, private pool, and dual master suites provide significant upside. Located near top-rated schools like Dixie Elementary, this property is an ideal acquisition for Buy-and-Hold Investors or Owner-Occupants seeking to build long-term wealth through strategic renovation.
Property is moderate renovation needed.
The property was built in 1965 and shows significant dating throughout. The kitchen features older wood cabinetry, tile countertops, and non-stainless appliances likely exceeding 25 years in age. Bathrooms contain 1990s-era fixtures and wallpaper. While the hardwood floors appear well-maintained, the pool surface shows staining and the exterior hardscape is worn, indicating the home is functional but requires comprehensive cosmetic updates and modernization.
Elementary School: Dixie Elementary School (9/10).
Situated in the highly sought-after Marinwood neighborhood, the property is within walking distance (0.33 miles) of Mary E. Silveira Elementary and close to Miller Creek Middle School, offering excellent educational convenience.
The nearly 3,000 sqft floor plan features dual master suites, a dedicated office, and a lower-level family room with a wet bar, providing exceptional flexibility for multi-generational living or remote work.
The property is marketed as a customization opportunity, implying that the 1965 interior finishes and systems likely require significant capital investment for upgrades and renovations.
The combination of a large lot, a private pool, and the home's age suggests higher-than-average ongoing maintenance costs and potential utility inefficiencies compared to newer builds.
