Condition Rating
Excellent
Despite being built in 1893, this property has undergone a recent and extensive 'full upgrade' as stated in the description. The kitchen features new cabinets, a new range, and new flooring, presenting a clean and functional space. The bathroom has also been updated with a modern vanity and toilet. New laminated wood flooring is installed throughout the house, and the interior and exterior have fresh paint. Double-pane windows and an insulated basement further contribute to its updated condition. While some fixtures are basic, the comprehensive nature of the renovation, making it move-in ready with no immediate repairs needed, aligns with the 'Excellent' criteria for a recently and extensively renovated property.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Substantial Price Reduction: A significant price drop from $850,000 to $600,000 presents an attractive investment opportunity and indicates motivated sellers.
Comprehensive Recent Upgrades: The property boasts a fully upgraded kitchen with a new range, new laminated wood flooring, double-pane windows, insulated basement, and fresh paint inside and out, minimizing immediate buyer expenses.
Pre-Inspected & Cleared: All inspections have been completed and cleared, offering buyers peace of mind and reducing due diligence time and risk.
Large, Versatile Backyard: A generous 6800 sqft lot with a new wood fence provides ample space for gardening, outdoor entertaining, and potential future expansion.
Historic Charm with Modern Convenience: A beautifully preserved West Oakland Craftsman home, offering architectural character, coupled with a convenient location near shopping, dining, and freeway access.
Cons
Limited Interior Space: With only 1106 sqft, 2 bedrooms, and 1 bathroom, the property may be restrictive for larger families or those requiring more living space.
Age of Property: Built in 1893, despite recent upgrades, the property's age may still imply potential for unforeseen maintenance issues related to original infrastructure not explicitly mentioned as updated.
Variable Local School Ratings: While several schools are nearby, some have lower ratings (2-3), which could be a consideration for families prioritizing highly-rated public education.
