Condition Rating
Fair

The home, built in 1948, has undergone updates as described, including hardwood flooring throughout and a 'Parisian-inspired' kitchen. The kitchen features earth-toned cabinetry and white appliances, which, while updated, do not reflect the most current styles or high-end finishes typically found in recent renovations. The main full bathroom explicitly retains its 'original vintage charm,' indicating it has not been modernized, though it is well-maintained. The half-bath/laundry area appears more recently updated. Overall, the property is move-in ready and well-maintained, but the age of the house and the mix of updated (but not cutting-edge) and vintage elements suggest renovations likely occurred 15-30 years ago, fitting the 'Fair' category where major components are functional but show signs of being outdated.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Value Proposition: The property has undergone a recent price improvement from $788,800 to $759,888, making it a more competitive and attractive offering in the market.
Prime Location & Accessibility: Situated in the desirable Washington Manor neighborhood, the home boasts ideal proximity to freeways, shops, and dining, enhancing convenience and lifestyle.
Modern & Updated Interiors: Features a beautifully updated, Parisian-inspired kitchen with ample storage, new hardwood flooring throughout, and a thoughtfully designed laundry/half-bath combo for modern living.
ADU Potential & Versatility: The rare side yard access leading to a detached garage offers significant potential for a workshop, studio, or future Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU), adding considerable value and flexibility.
Strong School District: Located near several well-rated public schools, including Madison Elementary (rating 8) and San Leandro High (rating 5), which is a significant draw for families.

Cons

Limited Living Space: With only 2 bedrooms and 1.5 bathrooms, the property may be restrictive for larger households or those requiring additional dedicated rooms.
Age of Property: Built in 1948, the home's age, despite updates, could imply potential for older infrastructure or systems that may require future attention or upgrades.
Dated Full Bathroom: The full bathroom retains its 'original vintage charm,' which, while well-maintained, may not align with contemporary aesthetic preferences for all buyers and could necessitate future renovation.
