Condition Rating
Good
This property, built in 2000, presents as move-in ready with significant recent updates throughout. The kitchen features modern white shaker-style cabinets, light granite/quartz countertops, a contemporary mosaic tile backsplash, and stainless steel appliances, all appearing to be in excellent condition. The bathrooms are similarly updated with modern vanities, light countertops, updated lighting fixtures, and tiled tub/shower surrounds. The consistent wood-look laminate flooring throughout the home, fresh paint, and updated light fixtures (including ceiling fans) contribute to a cohesive and modern aesthetic. While not a brand-new build or a full renovation within the last 5 years, the extensive updates in key areas place it firmly in the 'Good' category, requiring no immediate renovations and showing minimal wear and tear.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Prime Location & Lifestyle: Located in the desirable Communications Hill area of San Jose, offering scenic trails, Silicon Valley views, walkability, and an easy commute to major tech companies.
Modern & Updated Interior: Features recent updates throughout the house and wood-look laminate flooring, providing a move-in ready and contemporary aesthetic.
Functional Layout with Flexible Spaces: Includes two ensuite bedrooms, a spacious sitting area within the master suite, and an additional inviting landing nook, ideal for home offices or reading corners.
Private Outdoor Amenities: Boasts a private balcony framing a tree-lined street and a cozy patio, perfect for relaxation and entertaining.
Practical Features & Low HOA: Benefits from a 2-car garage with extra storage, convenient inside laundry, and a notably low HOA fee of $325, making monthly payments more manageable.

Cons

Condominium Ownership Limitations: As a townhome/condominium, it entails shared walls and adherence to HOA rules and regulations, which may limit personal modifications or privacy compared to a single-family home.
Recent Price Adjustment: The property recently underwent a significant price increase from its original listing, which could be perceived as an aggressive pricing strategy or deter potential buyers.
Limited Private Outdoor Space: While offering a balcony and patio, the property likely lacks the extensive private backyard space often desired by families or those seeking more substantial outdoor living areas.
