Property is move-in ready.
This 1927 historic residence is in move-in ready condition, showcasing exceptionally well-maintained original features such as hand-hewn woodwork, exposed beams, and refinished hardwood floors. The interior has been updated with modern recessed lighting and fresh paint, and the exterior features a well-kept pool and low-maintenance landscaping. While the home is charming and functional, it does not qualify as 'excellent' due to the age of the infrastructure and a bathroom-to-bedroom ratio that reflects its original vintage configuration rather than a recent full-scale modern renovation.
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 12001, living area = 2646.
Elementary School: Robert E. Willett Elementary School (9/10). High School: Davis Senior High School (9/10).
