This property, built in 1974, has undergone significant and tasteful renovations, particularly evident in the kitchen and bathrooms. The kitchen features modern white shaker cabinets, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and contemporary fixtures, appearing virtually new. Bathrooms also show recent updates with modern vanities, sinks, and tiling. Hardwood flooring in main living areas and fresh paint throughout contribute to a 'move-in ready' and 'turn-key' feel. While the core structure is older, the extensive cosmetic and functional updates place it firmly in the 'Good' category, requiring no immediate renovations and meeting current quality standards for key areas.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Prime Location & Walkability: The property boasts an excellent location near Moraga Town Center, parks, Greenway, and the Sunday Farmers Market, offering a highly walkable lifestyle with easy access to amenities, trails, and BART stations.
Updated Interior & Modern Kitchen: Features an updated and well-appointed kitchen with quartz counters, a breakfast bar, and stainless-steel appliances, complemented by an en-suite primary bedroom with dual sinks and a private balcony.
Comprehensive HOA Benefits: The HOA fee covers a wide range of amenities and services including a pool, water, garbage, insurance, common area maintenance, and exterior upkeep including the roof, simplifying homeownership responsibilities.
Turn-key & Move-in Ready: Described as a 'move-in ready' home, it offers turn-key ownership, appealing to buyers seeking immediate occupancy without the need for major renovations or repairs.
Excellent School District: Located within a highly-rated school district, with elementary, middle, and high schools all receiving impressive ratings of 9 or 10, a significant draw for families.

Cons

High Monthly HOA Fee: The substantial monthly HOA fee of $825.0, while comprehensive in its coverage, represents a significant ongoing cost that could impact affordability for some buyers.
Previous Contract Failure & Price Adjustment: The property was previously under contract for a higher price ($960K) but fell through due to buyer financing, leading to a price reduction. This history, despite being 'no fault of property,' may raise questions or concerns for potential buyers.
Age of Construction: Built in 1974, the property is 50 years old. While updated, the age of the building could imply potential for aging infrastructure or systems not explicitly covered by the HOA, or simply be a preference for newer construction for some buyers.
