PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES
- Income Potential & Versatility
The property features a 430 sqft studio ADU with private access and a separate yard, offering excellent opportunities for rental income, multi-generational living, or a guest suite.
- Extensive Modern Upgrades
Despite its 1938 charm, the home has been significantly modernized with a luxury kitchen, new HVAC, new windows, and updated appliances, ensuring move-in readiness and reduced maintenance costs.
- Strategic Professional Location
Situated in a prime East Sacramento location within two miles of three major hospitals and less than a mile from Sac State, this home is ideally positioned for medical professionals and academics.
CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- MLS Listing Discrepancy
Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 2027, other record living area = 1447. Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 3, other record bedroom count = 2.
- Compact Lot Size
With a lot size of 5,502 sqft accommodating both a 2,000+ sqft main house and an ADU, the remaining outdoor space may feel constrained for buyers seeking a large, private backyard.
- Parking Trade-off
Since the ADU occupies the space designed for a two-car garage, residents must choose between the utility of the additional living space and the convenience of covered parking.
