Built in 1975, this property is nearly 50 years old and retains most of its original rustic character. The kitchen is significantly dated, featuring lime green countertops and an older electric coil-top range. While the home appears very well-maintained and clean, the age of the finishes and likely the original systems (HVAC/Electric) necessitate updates to meet modern standards, fitting the 'Fair' criteria for properties over 20 years old that are dated but functional.
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 33637, living area = 796.

Designed by Snap Binker, the home features iconic Sea Ranch aesthetics with warm wood finishes and a seamless indoor-outdoor flow that captures the 'Binker Barn' heritage.
