Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1936, this home is exceptionally well-maintained but reflects a renovation age of over 20 years. While the kitchen features updated stainless steel appliances and stone countertops, the oak cabinetry and wallpaper are dated. The hardwood floors appear refinished and the roof looks newer, but the overall interior aesthetic and 56-year single-family ownership suggest systems and baths likely require modernization to meet current standards.
This unique 1936 Jazz Age/Storybook Style home offers a spacious 2,491 sqft layout with five bedrooms, providing rare character and ample room for a large family.
The property features a generous 8,625 sqft lot equipped with a large deep swimming pool, diving board, and covered patio, ideal for outdoor entertaining.
Situated on a quiet, tree-lined street in a highly desirable Modesto neighborhood, the home benefits from top-rated schools and a strong sense of community.
Lot size discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing lot size in square feet =8625, other record lot size in square feet = 8276.
Having been held by the same owner for 56 years, the home likely requires significant cosmetic updates and system modernizations to align with contemporary buyer preferences.
Multiple recent price reductions suggest the property has struggled to attract a buyer at previous price points, potentially indicating a gap between condition and market value.
