Pros & Cons

Pros

Exceptional Location & Accessibility: Centrally located in a highly desirable Pleasanton community, offering immediate access to top-rated schools, downtown amenities, shopping, dining, and major transit options including BART.
Turnkey Condition with Modern Updates: Recently updated with new flooring, fresh paint, upgraded insulation, and a modern kitchen featuring quartz countertops and stainless steel appliances, providing a move-in ready experience.
Valuable Modern Amenities: Equipped with an attached two-car garage, a water softener, and a significant electric vehicle (EV) charger, catering to contemporary lifestyle needs and adding value.
Community & HOA Benefits: Part of a well-maintained community offering extra parking and a welcoming atmosphere, with the HOA covering essential utilities such as water, sewer, and trash.
Inviting Layout & Private Outdoor Space: Features an open floor plan with high ceilings, a cozy fireplace, and a bright dining area that extends to a private patio, enhancing livability and entertaining options.

Cons

Substantial HOA Fees: The monthly association fee of $595 is relatively high, which could impact affordability and long-term ownership costs for some buyers.
Potential for Aging Major Systems: Built in 1988, the property is 36 years old. While cosmetic updates are noted, major systems (e.g., HVAC, roof, plumbing) may be original or nearing the end of their lifespan, potentially requiring future investment.
Townhome Limitations: As a townhome, it inherently offers less privacy and potentially smaller outdoor space compared to a detached single-family home, and shared walls could be a concern for noise.
