Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1961, this property shows its age with bathrooms featuring dated 1980s/90s-style gold-framed shower doors and 'Hollywood' light bars. While the home is functional and includes owned solar panels and Saltillo tile, the listing admits to deferred maintenance, and the interior finishes are well beyond the 20-year mark, requiring cosmetic and system updates to meet modern standards.
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 8712, living area = 1468.
The conversion of two bedrooms into a dedicated granny unit provides excellent flexibility for multigenerational living or potential rental income.
The property includes solar panels that are fully owned, not leased, offering the new owner immediate energy savings and increased home equity.
The listing notes deferred maintenance, particularly in the landscaping and yard, which will require immediate attention and capital investment from the buyer.

This home was originally considered a four bedroom. We converted two bedrooms into a granny unit. Saltillo tile throughout the whole house. Great location with a corner lot. There is some deferred maintenance but mostly in landscaping. We also have solar panels that we are paying for, not leased.
