Condition Rating
Good

The property, built in 1952, has undergone significant and recent renovations, making it move-in ready. The kitchen features modern white and gray cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and contemporary countertops, appearing to be updated within the last 5-10 years. The visible bathroom also shows recent updates with a modern vanity, glass shower enclosure, and updated tiling. The description highlights a new 2024 deck, freshly painted interiors, beautifully refinished hardwood floors, and a metal tile fire-resistant roof, all indicating substantial investment in maintenance and upgrades. While not a brand-new construction or a full gut renovation within the last 5 years, these updates fall well within the 5-15 year renovation window, aligning with the 'Good' condition criteria.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Expansive Lot & Outdoor Amenities: The property boasts a large 2.72-acre lot offering peaceful country living with beautiful hillside views, a new 2024 deck, covered patio, picnic area, fire pit, and mature fruit trees, providing ample space for recreation and privacy.
Income-Generating/Flexible ADU: Includes a 400+ sqft Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) with 1 bed, loft, private kitchen, and bathroom, presenting significant potential for rental income or multi-generational living arrangements.
Extensive Upgrades & Move-in Ready: The main home is move-in ready with recent upgrades such as central heating/air, fresh paint, beautifully refinished hardwood floors, and a durable metal tile fire-resistant roof, enhancing its appeal and longevity.
Versatile Outbuildings & Storage: Features an 1180 sqft detached structure with a 2-car garage, storage/tool room, and feed room, along with an 8x8 backyard studio and animal stable, catering to various hobbies, storage, or agricultural needs.
Strategic Location with Commuter Access: Offers a desirable blend of country tranquility and urban convenience, with easy access to the 580 Freeway, downtown Castro Valley, Pleasanton, and Fremont, as well as proximity to local schools, dining, and shopping.

Cons

Property Age: Built in 1952, the home's age, despite recent upgrades, may raise concerns for some buyers regarding potential for older infrastructure issues or higher long-term maintenance costs compared to newer constructions.
Price Reduction History: The property has undergone a significant price reduction from its original list price of $1,999,950 to $1,848,888, which could suggest initial overpricing or a slower market response.
Former Tennis Court Condition: The mention of 'additional parking (former tennis court)' implies a potentially underutilized or neglected area that might require further investment to restore or repurpose, or it could be perceived as a lost amenity.
