Condition Rating
Good

This 1962-built property has undergone extensive and thoughtful renovations, including a new energy-efficient roof in 2023, LED lighting, and hardwood flooring throughout. The bathrooms are highly modernized with fresh, updated finishes, featuring contemporary fixtures, vessel sinks, and wall-mounted toilets. The kitchen boasts stainless steel appliances and modern countertops, though the cabinet style, while well-maintained, suggests an update within the last 5-15 years rather than brand new. Overall, the home is move-in ready with no immediate renovation required, aligning perfectly with a 'Good' condition score.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Exceptional Location & Accessibility: Situated in a highly desirable Walnut Creek neighborhood, offering immediate access to local trails, Larkey Park, and just minutes from downtown amenities.
Panoramic Views: Boasts unobstructed, picturesque views of Mt. Diablo and serene rolling hillsides, significantly enhancing the property's appeal and value.
Extensive Modern Updates: Features a new energy-efficient roof (2023), modernized bathrooms, LED lighting, and hardwood flooring throughout, minimizing immediate capital expenditures for key areas.
Thoughtful Interior Design: Includes a spacious family room with vaulted ceilings, dramatic picture windows, and a versatile bonus flex room, providing ample natural light and functional living spaces.
Private, Manageable Lot: Set on a large, private lot with low-maintenance landscaping, ideal for outdoor enjoyment and relaxation without extensive upkeep.

Cons

Absence of Central Air Conditioning: The property description does not mention a cooling system, which could be a significant comfort concern during Walnut Creek's warmer months.
Original Build Year (1962): Despite recent updates, the 1962 construction year suggests that some core systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical beyond lighting) may still be original, potentially requiring future attention or upgrades.
Galley Kitchen Layout: While functional and 'extra-wide,' the galley kitchen design may not align with all buyers' preferences for a more open-concept kitchen space.
