Condition Rating
Fair
Built in 1927, this property retains historic charm and appears well-maintained and 'move-in ready' as described. However, the kitchen features very dated white tile countertops, green accent tile, and painted cabinets, suggesting a renovation from 20-30+ years ago. While appliances are newer stainless steel, the overall kitchen style is significantly outdated. Other areas show functional but not modern light fixtures and carpeting. The home is habitable and clean, but requires substantial cosmetic updates, especially in the kitchen and likely the unpictured bathrooms, to align with current buyer expectations.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Exceptional Coastal Proximity: The property boasts an enviable location, being only one mile from Ventura's beach, pier, and vibrant downtown, offering unparalleled access to recreational and urban amenities.
Historic Charm and Character: Built in 1927, the home retains significant historic charm and character, appealing to buyers seeking a property with unique architectural details and a sense of history.
Move-In Ready Condition: Described as 'ready to move in,' this property offers immediate occupancy, reducing the typical stress and costs associated with pre-move-in renovations.
Generous Yard Potential: Featuring a sizeable yard, the property provides ample outdoor space for gardening, entertaining, or future expansion, allowing for personalized landscaping and outdoor living designs.
Excellent School District Access: Located within close proximity to highly-rated schools like De Anza Academy (5-star) and E. P. Foster Elementary (4-star), making it highly attractive for families.
Cons
Advanced Age of Structure: As a 1927 build, the property may present potential concerns regarding the condition of original systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical, HVAC) and require ongoing maintenance or future upgrades.
Absence of Scenic Views: The property explicitly states 'view:None,' which could be a significant drawback for buyers in a coastal market who often prioritize ocean, city, or mountain vistas.
Undeveloped Yard Requires Investment: While sizeable, the yard is described as 'ready for your custom touches,' indicating it is not fully landscaped or developed, requiring additional time and financial investment from the new owner to realize its full potential.
