Property is move-in ready.
This 1913 Craftsman is well-maintained and move-in ready. While the structure is historic, it features tasteful updates to the kitchen and bathroom, updated plumbing, and a modern tankless water heater. The renovations and overall maintenance suggest a 'Good' rating as it avoids the dated feel of 'Fair' properties but isn't a brand-new total renovation required for 'Excellent'.
As a designated Mills Act property, this home offers substantial property tax savings, providing a significant long-term financial incentive that is rare for the area.
Situated in the heart of the Bluff Heights Historic District, the property is just blocks from the beach and the vibrant shops and dining of Retro Row.
The 1913 architecture features beautifully preserved period details, including original built-in cabinetry and a classic front porch, offering timeless aesthetic appeal.
With only 884 square feet of living space, the home's compact interior may be a constraint for buyers seeking larger rooms or additional living areas.
The 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom layout can be a drawback for multi-person households and may limit the property's competitive edge compared to homes with a second bath.
