Property is moderate renovation needed.
The property is a 1938-built cosmetic fixer that requires immediate interior attention. While the listing highlights major system upgrades such as a newer roof, furnace, and updated kitchen appliances, the visual evidence shows heavily stained carpeting, unfinished paint work, and a dated bathroom. It fits the 'fair' category as the major components are functional and some updates have been made, but it requires significant cosmetic repairs and minor updates to meet modern move-in standards.
The property is ideally situated within walking distance to downtown Benicia and First Street, providing excellent access to local boutiques, dining, and the waterfront.
Key high-cost components have already been updated, including a newer roof, furnace, kitchen, and instant hot water system, reducing immediate capital expenditure for the buyer.
The inclusion of a full basement and a detached garage with alley access offers significant storage and workshop potential that is highly desirable for a home of this vintage.
The home requires immediate interior investment, specifically needing new carpeting, paint, and general 'TLC' to bring it up to modern living standards.
With three bedrooms but only one bathroom, the layout may be a significant drawback for modern families or buyers seeking a more convenient bathroom-to-bedroom ratio.
