Property is extensive renovation needed.
Built in 1976 (48 years old), the property falls into the 30-50 year age bracket without evidence of a recent major renovation. The kitchen and flooring are dated, and while functional, the home requires significant updates to systems and interiors to meet modern standards.
The property boasts a private patio, a spacious backyard for entertaining, and a separate gated side yard, offering significant outdoor utility rarely found in homes of this size.
Conveniently situated near downtown Watsonville, shopping, and dining, with direct access to the Pajaro River Levee Trail for walking and biking.
The home features a very low $35 monthly association fee and is exempt from flood insurance requirements, providing long-term financial savings for the owner.
The 55+ community requirement limits the potential buyer pool to a specific demographic, which may impact future resale velocity.
With only one bathroom serving two bedrooms, the floor plan may be less convenient for households with multiple occupants or frequent guests.
This welcoming two bedroom, one bath home features a thoughtfully designed layout with a cozy wood-burning fireplace and a dedicated dining area enhanced by abundant natural light from a large patio door that opens to a private patio area. Conveniently located near shopping, restaurants, and Downtown. The home also offers easy access to the scenic Pajaro River Levee Trail, perfect for walking or biking! Enjoy a spacious backyard ideal for relaxing or entertaining, along with a separate gated side yard accessible from the main living area. Additional highlights include a natural gas forced air furnace and the no-requirement for flood insurance savings. Community guidelines require one resident to be 55+, with a second occupant permitted at 45+. Non-resident owners may be of any age.
