Condition Analysis
See Full ReportOVERALL CONDITION SCORE
Fair
TeardownExcellent
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1993 (33 years old), the property is dated with original bathroom vanities, laminate counters, and older carpeting. While the home appears functional and features some updated laminate flooring, the age of the systems and the lack of significant kitchen/bath renovations place it in the fair category requiring cosmetic updates.
PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES
- Prime Educational Proximity
The property is ideally situated within walking distance to Merced College and just five miles from UC Merced, offering significant appeal for faculty, students, or savvy rental investors.
- Superior Parking and Storage
A rare 3-car garage for a home of this size provides exceptional value, offering ample space for multiple vehicles, a home workshop, or additional storage needs.
- Desirable Cul-de-Sac Setting
Located at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, the home benefits from minimal through-traffic, enhanced privacy, and a safer environment compared to main thoroughfares.
CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- Potential for Modernization
Built in 1993 with no specific mention of recent renovations, the interior may require cosmetic or functional updates to align with modern buyer preferences.
- Negative Price Trajectory
The current list price of $369,000 is notably lower than the 2022 sale price of $399,500, which may reflect a shift in local market conditions or the need for property repairs.
