Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1992 (32 years old), the property features original, dated kitchen and bathrooms with tiled counters and oak cabinetry. While major systems are being addressed (new HVAC and roof certification), the interior is in poor cosmetic shape with heavily stained carpets and needs a full refresh of paint, flooring, and appliances.
Elementary School: Crocker/Riverside Elementary School (9/10).
The property includes Section 1 and 2 structural pest clearances and a 2-year roof certification, significantly reducing buyer risk and immediate maintenance concerns.
Priced below market value, this home offers a prime opportunity for investors or owner-occupants to build rapid equity through cosmetic updates like paint and flooring.
The home requires immediate investment in interior paint, flooring, door replacements, and appliances, which may be a hurdle for buyers seeking a move-in-ready property.
Most assigned schools in the immediate vicinity, such as Woodbine Elementary and Rosa Parks, have low performance ratings (2-3), which could impact long-term resale appeal for families.
Opportunity knocks at 6871 Carnation Ave.! This below-market, newer Sacramento home offers tremendous upside for buyers looking to build equity with some cosmetic updating. The home could use new interior paint, carpet/flooring, some door replacement, and possibly a kitchen appliance or two, but major seller preparations have already been completed for added peace of mind. Seller has obtained Section 1 and Section 2 structural pest clearances, along with a 2-year roof certification, and is in the process of installing a new heat pump/HVAC. Functional, two-story floor plan with a fireplace and great potential for owner-occupants or investors looking for a value-add opportunity in an established neighborhood. Spacious lot offers room to garden, entertain, or personalize the outdoor space. Conveniently located near schools, parks, shopping, dining, and freeway access. This is a rare chance to purchase a well-positioned property with key inspections already addressed and priced to reflect cosmetic improvements needed. Convenient access to Highway 99 and Interstate 5 Short drive to Downtown Sacramento, Elk Grove, and the airport. Nearby shopping along Florin Road and Stockton Boulevard. Established tree-lined streets with mature landscaping, a mix of original and newer homes, remodeled properties, and value-add opportunities. A great, two-story, newer home that is waiting for you to make it your own. Original photos on virtual tour: https://www.streamlinetours.com/homes/RdabmB2WbN98NxrDr8
