Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1984 (40 years old), the home is well-maintained and move-in ready but features dated elements. The kitchen and bathrooms show finishes like tile countertops and older cabinetry styles that are likely 20+ years old, requiring cosmetic updates to meet modern standards despite the addition of owned solar and newer appliances.
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 27303, living area = 4414.
High School: Colfax High School (9/10).
The 1,100 square foot lower level features a separate bedroom, living area, and kitchen, offering an ideal setup for an ADU, guest suite, or extended family living.
The property is located more than 8 miles away from the nearest high schools, which may be a drawback for families prioritizing short daily commutes for students.
The home was purchased for $884,000 in May 2024; the current list price of $995,000 represents a significant increase in a short period, which may lead to scrutiny regarding recent upgrades.
