Built in 1954, this property shows a mix of updates across its three units. While some areas, like the middle unit's 'spa-like' bathroom and one kitchen, appear to have been renovated within the last 15-25 years with more contemporary fixtures and finishes, other areas, such as the lower unit's kitchen with older wood cabinets, laminate countertops, and white appliances, are significantly more dated, likely 25-40+ years old. The description mentions 'refinished hardwood floors' and 'modernized fixtures,' indicating maintenance and some improvements, but not a comprehensive, recent renovation throughout. Major systems, like the visible wall heater, are functional but outdated. The property is aged but maintained, requiring minor updates to achieve a more cohesive and modern aesthetic across all units.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Exceptional Location: Situated in a highly sought-after Menlo Park neighborhood, offering proximity to Stanford University, Sand Hill Road, Downtown Menlo Park, and the award-winning Las Lomitas School District.
Versatile Multi-Unit Configuration: Features three distinct living units, providing excellent flexibility for multi-generational living, significant rental income potential, or strategic future redevelopment.
Generous Lot Size: A substantial 14,625 sq. ft. lot offers ample space, privacy, and significant potential for expansion or a complete new build in a high-value area.
Private & Serene Setting: Nestled among mature trees and backing onto San Francisquito Creek, ensuring exceptional privacy and a peaceful environment within an upscale neighborhood.
Recent Interior Enhancements: Benefits from refinished hardwood floors, modernized fixtures, and thoughtful additions like skylights and a spa-like bathroom, enhancing immediate livability.

Cons

Property Age & Potential for System Updates: Built in 1954, the core structure and potentially some major systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) may be original or require significant investment for modernization to meet contemporary standards.
Compact Living Space per Unit: While offering three units, the total 1,515 sq. ft. is distributed, resulting in relatively small individual unit sizes, which might limit appeal to certain tenant or owner profiles.
Recent Price Reduction: The property has undergone a price reduction, which could indicate initial overpricing or a need for more aggressive marketing to attract buyers in the current market.
