Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1947, this home is well-maintained and described as 'very clean,' but it remains dated. While the hardwood floors are in good condition and solar panels indicate some system updates, the kitchen and bathroom finishes appear to be older than 20 years. It is functional and move-in ready but lacks the modern renovations required for a 'Good' rating.
Situated in the highly desirable South Salinas neighborhood, the property offers excellent proximity to Hartnell College, local shopping, and well-regarded schools.
The home features beautiful original hardwood flooring throughout and durable tile in the kitchen and bathroom, providing a clean and timeless aesthetic.
The oversized kitchen provides significant cabinet and counter space, a rare and valuable feature for a starter home of this size.
With only one bathroom serving two bedrooms, the layout may be less convenient for families or guests compared to more modern configurations.
Built in 1947, the property may require future investments in aging systems or structural updates typical of homes from this era.
