Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1962, this property is described as 'lovingly maintained' and 'well-cared-for,' which suggests pride of ownership but indicates the home likely retains many original or older features rather than a full modern renovation. While the exterior shows updated vinyl windows and a clean appearance, the lack of 'remodeled' or 'updated' keywords regarding the kitchen and bathrooms, combined with the home's 60-year age, aligns with the 'Fair' category for a functional but dated residence.
The property is situated on a generous 6,970 sqft corner lot, offering superior curb appeal and significant outdoor space for gardening or recreation.
The large lot and strategic positioning provide excellent access and ample space, making it ideal for RV parking or potential future expansions.
Conveniently located near Highway 101, shopping, and dining, providing easy access to local beaches, wine country, and coastal towns.
At 1,040 square feet, the interior living area is relatively small for a three-bedroom home, which may feel restrictive for growing families.
The single-car garage offers minimal space for vehicle parking and storage compared to the modern standard of two-car garages.
Built in 1962, the property may require updates to major systems or cosmetic modernization to meet contemporary energy efficiency and design standards.
