Pros & Cons

Pros

Waterfront Living & Views: The property offers direct lagoon access with an oversized deck and private dock, providing stunning water views and a unique 'luxurious lagoon living' experience.
Extensively Updated Interior: Features include vaulted ceilings, skylights, updated floors, designer touches, a modern kitchen with new stainless steel appliances, and a renovated primary bath with a new soaking tub and dual vanities.
Comprehensive Community Amenities: A low HOA fee grants access to a range of amenities including community grilling areas, a pool, spa, optional clubhouse, and dry boat storage.
Private Outdoor Space: Beyond the deck and private dock, the unit boasts its own grassy yard space, a rare feature for waterfront units in the area.
Prime Location & Accessibility: Situated on a quiet street with no through traffic, it offers central San Mateo living with easy access to Highways 92 and 101, shopping, restaurants, and other essential amenities.

Cons

Elementary School Rating: The assigned Horrall Elementary School has a low rating (2/10), which could be a significant deterrent for families with young children.
Age of Property: Built in 1978, while cosmetically updated, the underlying structure and potentially some core systems are over 40 years old, which might lead to future maintenance considerations.
Limited Bedroom Count for Price Point: With only 2 bedrooms and 1310 sqft, the property's size might be considered modest for its price point in the San Mateo market, potentially limiting appeal to buyers seeking more space or additional bedrooms.
