Condition Rating

Built in 1960, the property's interior, particularly the kitchen and bathrooms, is severely outdated and shows significant wear and tear. The kitchen features original-style wood cabinets, old laminate countertops, basic appliances, and a visibly patched tile floor, indicating deferred maintenance or past issues. The bathroom has a dated vanity, sink, mirror, and tile work. While the laminate flooring in some bedrooms appears more recent, the core elements of the home require substantial repairs and rehabilitation to meet modern living standards. The property's value is clearly driven by its large land parcel, with the existing structure likely considered a tear-down candidate or requiring a full gut renovation.
Pros & Cons

Pros

High Available Lot Utilization: The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 45302, living area = 1825.
Exceptional Lot Size & Development Potential: The property boasts a significant 5.5 acres, sold with two additional lots, and is described as one of the 'last holdouts of undeveloped property' in a growing area, offering substantial potential for future development, expansion, or privacy.
Prime Location in a Growing Area: Situated on the border of Sacramento and Elk Grove, the area is highlighted as a 'popular, desirable, and growing location' and a 'newer and trendier area' of Sacramento, indicating strong appreciation potential.
Outstanding Proximity to Amenities: The property offers unparalleled convenience, being '3 min. to everything' including groceries, banks, parks, shops, and less than 5 minutes to major retailers like Home Depot, Costco, and Starbucks.
Family-Friendly & Safe Neighborhood with Top Schools: Rated as a 'safer area' and 'closer to top rated schools' by Trulia, making it an ideal and attractive location for families.
Excellent Recreational Access & Commuter Friendly: Located next to Tillotson Parkway, providing access to bicycle, pedestrian, and recreation areas, and just minutes from the 99 freeway entrance for easy commuting throughout Sacramento.

Cons

MLS Listing Discrepancy: Lot size discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing lot size in square feet =239580, other record lot size in square feet = 45302.
Age of the Home & Potential for Updates: Built in 1960, the existing 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home is over 60 years old and likely requires significant modernization, renovation, or may be considered a tear-down for new development, which is not explicitly detailed.
Limited Information on Home Condition/Features: The property description heavily emphasizes the land and location benefits, providing minimal details about the interior condition, finishes, or specific features of the house itself, suggesting the existing structure may not be a primary selling point or is in original/dated condition.
High Price Point Driven by Land Value: The $1.25 million list price is substantial and appears to be primarily driven by the large land parcel and its development potential, which might deter buyers seeking a modern, updated home at this price point if the existing structure does not meet contemporary expectations without further investment.
