Property is move-in ready.
While originally built in 1904, the property is well-maintained and move-in ready. It features critical recent system and structural updates including a new roof and foundation bracing. Although the kitchen and baths are 'vintage' and dated, the refinished hardwood floors, newer appliances, and overall mint cosmetic condition of the living spaces qualify it as good.
This 1904 home retains exceptional original details including built-in cabinetry, pocket doors, and a vintage O'Keefe & Merritt stove, offering a rare level of authentic charm for heritage enthusiasts.
Recent high-value improvements such as a new roof, foundation bracing and bolting, and refinished hardwood floors provide essential peace of mind and reduce immediate capital expenditure for the buyer.
The property features a thoughtfully landscaped lot with a mature fruit orchard and a spacious garage that offers significant value-add potential for an ADU conversion or creative studio.
At 1,131 square feet, the home's modest size and 1904 layout may feel restrictive for growing families or those accustomed to more expansive modern floor plans.
The majority of assigned and nearby public schools carry low ratings (ranging from 2 to 3), which may be a deterrent for families prioritizing high-performing educational districts.
