Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1964 and well-maintained by long-term owners, the property is functional but significantly dated. The bathrooms, laundry area, and kitchen fixtures appear to be original or over 30 years old, and the carpeting shows visible wear. While the home shows pride of ownership, it requires comprehensive cosmetic updates and modernization of systems to meet current market standards.
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 10044, living area = 2433.
The generous 10,044 sq ft lot features a pool, BBQ area, and a rare collection of mature fruit trees, creating a private and lush backyard retreat perfect for entertaining.
Designed by architect Olaf Larsson, the home boasts custom Swedish-inspired details, including exposed beams, lathe and plaster walls, and handcrafted cabinetry that offer distinct charm.
With original 1964 features like wood paneling and older custom cabinetry, the home likely requires significant cosmetic modernization to meet contemporary buyer preferences.
Given the property's age and the reliance on lathe and plaster for cooling, the home may lack modern energy-efficient HVAC systems, necessitating future capital investment.
