Condition Rating
Good

Despite being built in 1955, this property has undergone extensive and comprehensive renovations, including a new electrical panel, rewired bedrooms, central AC, furnace, insulation, double-pane windows, recent roof work, and updated plumbing. The kitchen features stainless steel appliances and solid countertops, and the bathrooms are updated with bidets and a soaking tub. While some stylistic elements in the kitchen (cabinet color, fluorescent light) and bathrooms (fixture styles, vanity light) suggest the renovation might be closer to 10-15 years old rather than brand new, the property is move-in ready with all major systems updated and in good working order, aligning perfectly with the 'Good' condition criteria.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Comprehensive Modern Renovation: Extensive and tasteful updates throughout, including kitchen, bathrooms, flooring, electrical, plumbing, roof, central AC, double-pane windows, furnace, and insulation, ensuring a move-in ready and energy-efficient home.
Strategic Tech Hub Location: Situated less than two miles from Apple Spaceship Campus and close to other major tech employers, thoroughfares, and amenities, offering unparalleled convenience for professionals.
Architectural Charm & Spacious Interiors: Features soaring vaulted ceilings with exposed beams, creating an open and airy feel, complemented by an open-concept kitchen and a luxurious primary suite.
Enhanced Outdoor Living & Utility: Boasts a private front courtyard, an expansive, tree-shaded backyard, and three storage sheds, providing ample space for recreation, entertaining, and practical storage needs.
Large Corner Lot Advantage: Positioned on a generous 8,360 sqft corner lot, offering increased space, curb appeal, and potential for greater privacy compared to standard interior lots.

Cons

Moderate Elementary School Rating: Pomeroy Elementary, while conveniently located, holds a rating of 4/10, which may not meet the expectations of buyers seeking top-tier elementary school performance.
Original Construction Age (1955): Despite significant updates, the property's 1955 original build year might raise considerations for some buyers who prefer newer construction or anticipate potential long-term maintenance related to the underlying older structure.
Corner Lot Specifics: While offering benefits, the corner lot location could potentially expose the property to higher traffic noise or reduced privacy depending on the specific street activity, which might be a drawback for some buyers.
