Property is extensive renovation needed.
Built in 1952, this 72-year-old property shows significant age-related wear. While it features some cosmetic updates like fresh paint and laminate flooring in bedrooms, the primary systems are outdated, specifically featuring an old wall heater rather than central HVAC. The exterior siding shows signs of deterioration and peeling at the base, and the overall condition suggests a need for a comprehensive rehab of the kitchen, bathroom, and mechanical systems to meet modern safety and efficiency standards.
Priced at $320,000, this property represents a highly accessible entry point into the Sacramento market, offering an excellent opportunity for first-time buyers or investors to build equity.
The generous lot includes a spacious, open backyard that serves as a blank canvas for future landscaping, gardening, or an outdoor entertainment retreat.
The interior features durable tile flooring throughout and a functional layout, providing a move-in-ready space that is easy to maintain and clean.
With only 858 square feet of living space and a single bathroom, the home may feel restrictive for growing families or those requiring a dedicated home office.
The assigned middle and high schools have low ratings (2/10), which may be a concern for families prioritizing education and could impact long-term resale value.
