Property is move-in ready.

This 1930s Spanish bungalow is move-in ready and has been thoughtfully maintained, preserving high-value vintage architectural details like the original Batchelder fireplace and plaster archways. While the kitchen and bathroom lean into a 'vintage allure' rather than a modern remodel, the property features well-maintained wood flooring, a functional layout, and a clean, updated appearance that avoids the deferred maintenance typically seen in 'fair' or 'poor' listings.

PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES

CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
