Condition Rating
Poor

Built in 1962, this property's interior, particularly the kitchen and bathrooms, is significantly outdated. The bathrooms feature original or 70s/80s-era green tiled showers and tiled countertops with older fixtures. The kitchen, though not fully visible, appears to have original or similarly aged cabinetry. Light fixtures, such as the Tiffany-style pendant and dated chandeliers/ceiling fans, along with the carpet flooring, further contribute to an aesthetic that is well over 30-50 years old. While the home appears structurally well-maintained and clean, it requires substantial cosmetic and functional rehabilitation to meet modern living standards, aligning with the 'poor' condition criteria.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Spacious & Private Lot: The property boasts an expansive 45,302 sq ft (over an acre) private lot, offering a rare country living experience with ample space and seclusion in a desirable urban area.
Desirable Almaden Location: Located in the highly sought-after Almaden Valley, known for its quality of life, proximity to Los Alamitos Creek Trail, and convenient access to shopping and major expressways.
Top-Rated School Access: Benefits from excellent school districts, including highly-rated Leland High School (8/10, 0.44 miles) and Graystone Elementary (8/10, 0.54 miles), a significant draw for families.
Scenic Views & Mature Landscaping: Offers sweeping views of Mt. Umunhum and surrounding hills, complemented by beautifully maintained grounds, mature landscaping, seven flourishing citrus trees, and a quiet patio.
Flexible Basement Space: Features an exterior-entry basement with an enclosed room, providing valuable flexible space for various uses, storage, or potential future customization.

Cons

Property Age: Built in 1962, the home is over 60 years old, which may imply outdated systems, finishes, or require significant updates to meet modern buyer preferences and energy efficiency standards.
Extended Market Time & Price Adjustment: With 82 days on market and a recent price reduction from $2.25M to $2.1M, it suggests the initial pricing may have been too high or there are factors deterring buyer interest, potentially indicating a slower sale process.
Detached Garage: The garage is detached from the main residence, which can be less convenient for daily use, especially during inclement weather, compared to an attached garage.
