Please note: This home is being sold AS-IS with known, unpermitted work. All buyers should conduct thorough due diligence. Unpermitted modifications include:
Load-Bearing Wall Modified - An interior structural wall was altered without permits or engineering oversight. Buyers are encouraged to consult a licensed contractor or structural engineer to assess and remediate.
Substantial Electrical and Plumbing Changes - Significant modifications were made without city or county permits.
Backyard Grading and Dirt Movement - The backyard was regraded by the seller to create a more functional and level space. This work was completed without grading or erosion permits. Location is does have some noise from the airport (approx. 10 miles away) and the nearby rock quarry (approx. 1 mile away).
These changes add flexibility to the space, but they will require proper evaluation, potential remediation, and permitting to meet current code standards. The price reflects these factors and the home's overall potential and a seller is providing a home warranty from First American Home Warranty. With some work and vision, this property could become a custom dream home.
Note: Current above grade finished area square footage is an approximate measurement and will be verfied by a professional 3rd party who has already taken measurements. Their measurements and floor plan are coming soon as well as additional photos.
