Pros & Cons

Pros

Income-Generating ADU: The property features a permitted ADU (approx. 419 sq ft) with a separate entrance, kitchen, laundry, full bath, living room, bedroom, and private backyard, offering significant income potential or multi-generational living.
Extensive Modern Upgrades: Over $200,000 has been invested in recent upgrades, including new interior/exterior paint, recessed lighting, a gourmet kitchen with quartz countertops and stainless steel appliances, remodeled primary bathroom, new hardwood flooring, and new split HVAC systems.
Flexible Bonus Space: A separate bonus utility or office room in the backyard, complete with a window, skylight, and flooring, provides valuable flexible space not included in the main square footage, ideal for remote work or hobbies.
Move-in Ready Condition: Described as an 'Updated Move-In Ready home,' the extensive renovations mean buyers can move in without immediate need for major repairs or updates, saving time and additional investment.
Low-Maintenance & Ample Parking: The property boasts new low-maintenance landscaping and a very long driveway capable of accommodating multiple cars, enhancing convenience and curb appeal.

Cons

MLS Listing Discrepancy: Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 4, other record bedroom count = 3.
Age of Original Structure: Built in 1954, the underlying structure is older, which, despite extensive renovations, may still imply potential for unseen issues or future maintenance needs related to original components not explicitly upgraded.
Compact Lot Size: With a lot size of 5000 sq ft, the property offers a relatively modest outdoor space, especially considering the footprint of both the main house, the permitted ADU, and the bonus utility room.
ADU Size Limitation: While a significant asset, the ADU's approximate 419 sq ft is compact, which might limit its appeal to a broader range of tenants or long-term occupants seeking more spacious living arrangements.
