Condition Rating
Poor
Built in 1912, this property is over a century old. While the living areas feature well-maintained hardwood floors and charming original details like colonial grid windows and pocket doors, the kitchen is significantly outdated. It showcases 'Early American craftsmanship' with distressed wooden cabinets, rustic tile countertops, and flagstone flooring, which, despite newer stainless steel appliances (range and refrigerator), would require substantial rehabilitation to meet modern standards. The dishwasher is also an older, white model. The bathroom, though not pictured, can be inferred to be similarly aged and in need of a full renovation. The overall condition suggests that while the house is livable, major functional areas like the kitchen and likely the bathroom require significant investment to modernize, aligning with the 'Poor' category's criteria for substantial repairs and rehabilitation.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Development Potential: The expansive 13,532 sqft lot offers significant development opportunities, including ADU construction, SB9 lot split, or building a larger dream home, providing exceptional flexibility for future owners.
Private & Serene Setting: Nestled in a serene hillside with lush greenery and mature trees, the property provides unmatched privacy and a tranquil, park-like outdoor environment.
Charming Architectural Details: The home boasts timeless character with hardwood floors, colonial grid windows, a cozy fireplace, Victorian-era glass pocket doors, built-ins, and Early American craftsmanship in the kitchen.
Convenient Location: Minutes from Joaquin Regional Park, Robert Regional Recreation Area, Hwy 13, and Montclair Village, offering a balance of peaceful hillside living with easy access to city amenities and nature.
Practical Amenities & Storage: Includes an attached garage, full-size washer/dryer, and two Tuff-Sheds, adding functional value and ample storage solutions.

Cons

Limited Living Space: The existing home is small, featuring only 1 bedroom and 1 bathroom across 820 sqft, which may not meet the needs of larger households or those desiring more interior space.
Age of Property: Built in 1912, the home is over a century old, potentially requiring significant maintenance, updates, or renovations to modernize and meet contemporary living standards.
Price Point for Current Structure: The list price of $799,000 is substantial for a 1 bed/1 bath 820 sqft home, indicating that a significant portion of the value is tied to the land and its development potential rather than the existing structure, which might deter buyers seeking a larger, move-in ready home.
