Pros & Cons

Pros

Prime Location & Privacy: Tucked away in a private cul-de-sac within the highly sought-after North Valley neighborhood, offering both exclusivity and a desirable community setting.
Extensive Updates & Modern Finishes: The home boasts recent updates including new laminate floors, interior paint, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and updated bathrooms, providing a move-in ready and contemporary living space.
Exceptional Outdoor Living & ADU Potential: Features one of the largest backyards in the neighborhood (10,088 sq ft) with a multi-use sport court, built-in BBQ, pergola, custom outdoor seating, and a reinforced pad for a potential ADU, offering significant entertainment and expansion possibilities.
Spacious & Functional Layout: A generous 2,121 sq ft, 5-bedroom, 3-bathroom executive-style home with a convenient downstairs bedroom and full bath, soaring ceilings, and formal living/dining areas, catering well to families and guests.
Desirable Amenities & Views: Includes central A/C, a cozy fireplace, and breathtaking foothill views, enhancing comfort, livability, and aesthetic appeal.

Cons

Property Age: Built in 1997, while updated, the underlying structure and some systems are over two decades old, which might lead to future maintenance considerations compared to newer constructions.
High School District Ambiguity: The MLS lists the high school district as 'Other,' which, despite the general claim of 'Top-rated schools!', could require buyers to conduct additional research to confirm specific high school ratings and suitability for their needs.
No Pool: Despite the large and amenity-rich backyard, the absence of a swimming pool might be a drawback for some buyers, especially in a region where outdoor water recreation is highly valued.
