Good

This property, built in 1986, is clearly move-in ready and has undergone significant updates. The description highlights a 'nicely updated home' with a 'thoughtfully updated kitchen w/newer cabinets, quartz countertops & stainless steel appliances.' Images confirm modern stainless steel appliances, clean quartz countertops, and updated light-toned cabinetry in the kitchen. The bathrooms also feature updated vanities, modern light fixtures, and clean glass shower enclosures. Hardwood flooring is present throughout the main living areas and bedrooms, appearing well-maintained.

Central AC is a plus. Overall, the property shows minimal wear and tear and requires no immediate renovations, aligning perfectly with the 'Good' condition criteria.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Strategic Commuter Location: Unbeatable access to major highways (101, 680, 880), public transit (light rail, BART), and minutes from Silicon Valley tech hubs (Nvidia, Google, Apple, Amazon), making it ideal for professionals.
Exceptional Local Amenities: Conveniently located near major shopping centers (Great Mall, Ranch 99, HMart, Sprouts, Costco), SJ International Airport, diverse restaurants, and recreational parks (Flickinger, Townsend) and golf course.
Modernized Interior & Features: Recently updated with a bright, open floor plan, soaring ceilings, central AC, and a thoughtfully remodeled kitchen featuring newer cabinets, quartz countertops, and stainless steel appliances.
Flexible Living Arrangements: Includes a valuable guest bedroom and full bath on the first floor, perfect for multigenerational living or entertaining, complemented by a large primary suite with a dedicated retreat area.
Low-Maintenance Outdoor & HOA Value: Offers a private, low-maintenance backyard with mature fruit trees, plus the HOA fee covers property and earthquake insurance, providing added value and peace of mind.

Cons

Limited Square Footage for Price: With 1513 sqft and a small 2613 sqft lot, the property offers a relatively compact living space for its $1.368M price point in the competitive San Jose market.
Aging Infrastructure: Built in 1986, the property's core infrastructure is nearly 40 years old. While updated, potential buyers may have concerns about the longevity or future maintenance of systems not explicitly mentioned as replaced.
Mandatory HOA Dues: The monthly $192 HOA fee, while inclusive of insurance, represents an additional fixed cost that some buyers may view as a drawback, preferring properties without ongoing association dues.
