Property is extensive renovation needed.
Built in 1941, this property is explicitly marketed as an 'Investor Special' requiring 'Plenty Of Sweat Equity' to 'Make This Home Beautiful Once Again!' While it benefits from some significant energy efficiency upgrades like double-pane windows, insulation, and central HVAC, the description is notably vague about the condition and style of the kitchen and bathrooms, suggesting they are likely very outdated and require substantial renovation. The exterior image also indicates an older aesthetic. The need for an 'inspection report' further implies potential issues beyond cosmetic. These factors point to a property that requires substantial rehabilitation to meet modern standards, aligning with a 'poor' condition score.
The detached two-car garage offers significant ADU potential (buyer to verify) and convenient RV access, adding substantial value and flexibility for future use.
The property boasts modern energy-efficient features including a solar reflective exterior coating, additional R-rated insulation in the attic, walls, and floors, and Energy Star rated double-pane windows throughout.
This home features a bright and open floor plan with a large living room, a huge dining room, and an expansive den with high wood beam ceilings, skylights, and a wet bar, ideal for entertaining.
