Condition Rating
Good
Built in 1996, this property is 28 years old. The description highlights recent cosmetic updates including freshly painted main areas, a refinished backyard with new concrete, and newly seeded lawns, indicating good maintenance. While the kitchen is not pictured, the visible bathroom features a double vanity with granite countertops and tiled shower/floor, suggesting an update likely within the last 10-15 years, making it functional and well-maintained, though not ultra-modern. The overall condition appears move-in ready with no immediate major renovations required, aligning with the 'Good' score criteria.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Prime Location: Located in Cupertino, a highly desirable neighborhood in the heart of Silicon Valley, offering convenience and strong appreciation potential.
Excellent School District: Situated within the highly rated Cupertino Union School District, including top-rated elementary, middle, and high schools, a major draw for families.
Spacious & Flexible Layout: Features 5 bedrooms and 3.5 baths, including two primary suites with walk-in closets, providing ample space and flexible living arrangements.
Recent Cosmetic Updates: Freshly painted main areas and newly seeded front and back lawns contribute to a bright, inviting, and well-maintained appearance.
Enhanced Outdoor Living: The refinished backyard with a new concrete area expands usable outdoor space, perfect for gatherings, play, and entertainment.
Cons
High Price Point & Valuation Discrepancy: The list price of $3.888 million is substantial, and the property estimation is 4% lower than the listing price, suggesting it might be priced at the higher end of market expectations.
Limited Specific Interior Upgrades: While painted, the description doesn't detail significant interior renovations (e.g., kitchen, bathrooms beyond 'freshly painted'), which might be expected at this price point for a 1996-built home.
Modest Lot Size for Home Scale: A 5,250 sqft lot for a 2,625 sqft home, while potentially standard for the area, might be considered modest for buyers seeking larger outdoor space relative to the home's size.
