More Insights

Built in 1969 (57 years old).
Condition: Built in 1969, this property is over 50 years old. While it benefits from a new roof, a new covered patio, and recently updated bathrooms with modern vanities and fixtures, the kitchen appears to have only cosmetic updates (new faucet, newer hardware) and likely retains older cabinets and countertops. The presence of a swamp cooler suggests an outdated cooling system. The home is well-maintained with some key updates, but the age of the core structure and partial nature of renovations prevent it from achieving a 'Good' rating.

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 = 10018, living area = 1212.
R2 Zoned Lot with ADU Potential: The nearly quarter-acre R2 lot offers significant development potential, including the possibility of adding an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU), enhancing future value and income opportunities.
Recent Major Capital Improvements: Features a new roof and a newly permitted, large 20x40 covered patio with a cooler, providing immediate value, reduced maintenance concerns, and enhanced outdoor living.
Updated Key Interior Spaces: Both the master and hall bathrooms have been recently updated with new or newer fixtures, vanities, and hardware, offering a fresh and modern feel.
Expansive & Landscaped Backyard: A 'huge backyard' with mature landscaping, including fruit trees and grass, provides ample space for recreation, gardening, and outdoor entertaining.
Versatile Parking Solutions: Offers a long driveway, possible RV parking, and an enclosed carport, catering to diverse vehicle storage needs.

Cons

Age of Property (1969 Build): As a 1969 build, the property's underlying systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical, HVAC) may be original or older, potentially requiring future maintenance or upgrades not explicitly mentioned.
Uncertainty Regarding Appliances: The listing states that appliances (kitchen, washer, dryer) 'can stay but are not guaranteed,' which could lead to unexpected costs for buyers if they need to purchase new ones.
Compact Interior for Bedroom Count: With 1212 sqft for 4 bedrooms, the interior living space is relatively compact, which might result in smaller room sizes and could be a drawback for buyers seeking more expansive living areas.
