About This Home
Beautifully remodeled 3-bedroom, 1.75-bath home in a quiet Northeast Bakersfield neighborhood! This 1,434 sq. ft. home sits on a generous 6,709 sq. ft. lot shaded by large, mature trees out front, offering welcome relief during warm Bakersfield summers. Freshly updated throughout with new interior and exterior paint, new carpet, and fully remodeled bathrooms. The kitchen has been completely refreshed with new cabinets, new counters, and new stainless steel appliances. Durable LVP flooring runs through the main areas, and a fireplace adds character to the main living room. Step outside to a spacious backyard with plenty of room to relax or entertain. The attached two-car garage offers convenient parking and storage. Ideally located close to Bakersfield College and just minutes from the highly anticipated City Lights development, a shopping and dining destination currently under construction at the former East Hills Mall site. A true move-in-ready opportunity!
