Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1962, the property is characterized by vintage construction and aging systems. While the 4-bedroom layout is functional, the lack of recent renovation details and the 'vintage' status suggest the home is maintained but features outdated styles and components that require minor updates.
The property is zoned for top-tier schools, including Bella Vista High (8/10) and Pershing Elementary (7/10), providing significant long-term value for families and resale potential.
With an association fee of $0, homeowners benefit from lower monthly carrying costs and greater freedom to utilize and customize the property without restrictive covenants.
The 1,570 sqft floor plan features a desirable 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom configuration, offering the versatility needed for growing families or dedicated home office spaces.
Built in 1962, the home may require capital improvements to aging systems such as plumbing, electrical, or insulation to meet modern energy efficiency and safety standards.
The 6,534 sqft lot is relatively modest for the Orangevale market, which may limit buyers seeking the larger, more expansive outdoor spaces typically found in this suburban community.
