Good
Despite being built in 1920, this property has undergone significant and recent renovations, particularly in the kitchen and bathrooms. The kitchen features modern white shaker cabinets, granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances, making it highly functional and aesthetically pleasing. Bathrooms are updated with contemporary vanities, fixtures, and tiling. Flooring is a mix of well-maintained hardwood and modern wood-look laminate. The property is move-in ready with no immediate renovations required, aligning with the 'Good' condition criteria for a property extensively renovated within the last 5-15 years, even if not a full, top-to-bottom renovation.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Exceptional Income Potential & Versatility: The property includes a standalone ADU and flexible basement suites, offering significant rental income opportunities (last rented for $8,925/month) and catering to multi-generational living, Airbnb, or other diverse uses.
High Capacity & Multiple Suites: With 7 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms, including several private suites, the home provides ample space and privacy, suitable for a large family or multiple occupants.
Prime Urban Location & Accessibility: Strategically located within walking/biking distance to San Jose State University, the new Google campus, local parks, and offering easy access to major highways (87, 101, 280, 680), ensuring excellent connectivity and convenience.
Upgraded Kitchen: The kitchen boasts modern upgrades including granite countertops, a gas range, and a large refrigerator, making it a functional and appealing space for cooking.
Ample Parking Solutions: The property features a detached one-car garage, a driveway accommodating several vehicles, and additional on-street parking, addressing a common challenge in urban areas.

Cons

Age of Property & Potential for Deferred Maintenance: Built in 1920, the property is over a century old. While some upgrades are noted, older homes often come with inherent risks of deferred maintenance, outdated systems (plumbing, electrical), and potentially higher ongoing repair costs.
Absence of Air Conditioning: The description highlights central heating and ceiling fans but makes no mention of a cooling system, which could be a significant discomfort and a drawback for potential buyers during San Jose's increasingly hot summer months.
Mixed Local School Performance: Several nearby public schools have lower ratings (e.g., 2s and 3s), which might be a concern for families prioritizing access to top-tier public education.
