About This Home

As of April 2020

Your time has arrived to move into this classic South Salinas neighborhood. Clean and ready for new owners after 60+ years of continual ownership, this is a nice family home near Mission Park school. Beautifully refinished original hardwood floors stand out, but beneath the surface are hidden upgrades including all new plumbing and sewer lines. New interior and exterior paint, a newer water heater and kitchen appliances including stove, vent, oven and refrigerator have recently been replaced. An over-sized driveway allows for plenty of parking while the front and back yards allow room for all the kids activities. A rare find at this price point in this neighborhood, so schedule a showing today.
