Condition Rating
Fair
Built in 1988, this home is well-maintained with functional systems like central AC and heat. While some updates are present, such as a modern walk-in shower in one bathroom and newer stainless steel dishwasher, the kitchen features dated ceramic tile countertops, older cabinet styles (despite being painted), and a mix of appliance ages. The flooring in common areas also appears to be from an older renovation. The property is clean and livable but requires significant updates, particularly in the kitchen, to meet current aesthetic and functional standards, aligning with the 'Fair' category's description of an aged but maintained home with functional but outdated major components.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Excellent Condition & Design: The property is described as 'beautifully maintained' and features desirable architectural elements like high ceilings, an elegant formal dining area, and a warm family room with a fireplace, suggesting a move-in ready home with appealing aesthetics.
Flexible Floor Plan: The inclusion of a ground floor bedroom and full bath offers significant versatility, catering to multi-generational living, guest accommodations, or dedicated work-from-home needs, broadening its buyer appeal.
Premium Outdoor Living: A private backyard retreat complete with an in-ground pool, spa, and storage shed provides exceptional recreational value and additional utility, enhancing the lifestyle offering.
Modern Comfort Systems: Equipped with central AC, forced-air heat, and ceiling fans, the home ensures year-round comfort and climate control, which are highly sought-after amenities.
Desirable Location & School District: Situated in the 'sought-after Gilroy Unified School District' and conveniently located near shopping, parks, and dining, the property benefits from strong community amenities and accessibility.
Cons
Dated Kitchen Finishes: While 'well-appointed' with 'modern appliances,' the mention of 'ceramic countertops' in the kitchen might be perceived as dated by some buyers expecting more contemporary premium materials like quartz or granite, potentially necessitating future upgrades.
Property Age & Potential System Updates: Built in 1988, despite being 'beautifully maintained,' the property's age suggests that major systems (e.g., roof, plumbing, electrical) could be original or nearing the end of their typical lifespan, which may lead to future maintenance costs or buyer concerns.
Aggressive Pricing Strategy & Market Perception: The listing history shows multiple price adjustments, including a significant increase from the original list price of $999,000 to $1.3M, followed by reductions to the current $1.249M. This, coupled with a property estimation of $1.196M (lower than current list price), suggests the property may be perceived as overpriced by the market, potentially hindering a quick sale.
