Condition Rating
Fair
The property is very well-maintained with hardwood flooring throughout and recessed lighting in main areas. However, the kitchen features dated white appliances, tile countertops, and a tile backsplash, indicating a renovation likely 15-30 years ago. Similarly, the bathroom has an older tile vanity and tub surround. While functional and clean, these key areas show signs of being outdated and would require significant updates to meet current aesthetic standards, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Premier North Palo Alto Location: Situated in the highly desirable Duveneck/St. Francis neighborhood, offering exceptional walkability to top-rated Duveneck Elementary, downtown Palo Alto amenities, parks, and Stanford University.
Spacious & Functional Single-Level Layout: A generous 2,286 sqft single-level home featuring large living spaces, a formal dining room, and a versatile sunroom, providing ample space and ease of living.
Well-Maintained with Recent Exterior Upgrades: Described as 'good quality and well maintained,' the property benefits from new fencing and landscaping, enhancing its curb appeal and suggesting move-in readiness.
Abundant Natural Light & Classic Features: Equipped with big windows throughout, ensuring abundant natural light, complemented by classic hardwood flooring that adds to the home's charm and appeal.
Generous Lot Size & Ample Parking: Sits on a substantial 10,640 sqft lot, a significant asset in Palo Alto, and includes a separate oversized two-car garage providing excellent storage and parking.
Cons
Age of Construction (1946): While well-maintained, the 1946 build year suggests potential for older infrastructure (e.g., plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that may require future updates not explicitly mentioned, which could be a concern for a property at this price point.
Limited Showing Availability: The restriction to 'only available for showing during open house hours' can significantly limit buyer access and flexibility, potentially deterring interested parties who cannot attend scheduled times.
Lack of Explicit Interior Modernization: The description highlights general spaciousness and good maintenance but does not detail specific modern updates to key areas like bathrooms or the kitchen (beyond being 'large'), which buyers in this luxury market often expect in a home of this vintage.
