Tucked away in a very quiet neighborhood of Southwest Santa Rosa off Stony Point Rd., this home is just a few blocks from RL Stevens Elementary School and a few minutes to shopping, services, Hwy 12 and Hwy 101. This diamond in the rough has been in one family since 1989 and they are excited for someone new to re-vitalize and re-imagine the property. Please show your contractors and others this great opportunity to create sweat equity with lots of upside potential. Originally built in 1940 and modified and added on to in 1976. There is substantial deferred maintenance throughout the entire property and will need to be a cash sale or private money financing. Trust sale (no court confirmation). Required disclosures provided by the Trustee, but no pre-listing inspection or reports. Any and all prospective buyers to investigate the property to their satisfaction. There may be development potential, buyers to verify independently with the City of Santa Rosa. The home is connected to public water and sewer and PG&E gas and electric.

Wright Area Action Group, located between Santa Rosa Creek and Highway 101, is a residential and civic Santa Rosa neighborhood with mid-century streetscapes and a creekside greenbelt feel. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Mendocino Ave and College Ave corridor, where independent cafes, taquerias, and small storefronts keep the sidewalks active. Housing reads as practical California ranch homes and compact apartment courts, with mature trees softening the blocks. Santa Rosa Junior College anchors daily rhythms with classrooms, sports fields, and public events. Nearby, the Luther Burbank Home & Gardens and the Charles M. Schulz Museum add cultural gravity without changing the laid-back pace.
