Pros & Cons

Pros

Prime Location: Unbeatable location on the Cambrian/Los Gatos Border, offering easy access to Highway 85 and minutes away from shopping and dining in Downtown Campbell and Downtown Los Gatos.
Award-Winning Schools: Located within the highly sought-after award-winning school district, including Carlton Elementary, Union Middle, and Leigh High, a major draw for families.
Extensive Modern Updates: The home boasts fresh interior and exterior paint, refinished hardwood flooring, an updated kitchen with new appliances and granite-composite countertops, and a remodeled hallway bathroom, providing a move-in ready experience.
Desirable Lot Size & Outdoor Space: Sits on an over 6,000 SqFt lot with a beautiful patio and backyard, offering ample outdoor living and entertaining space.
Contemporary Amenities: Features recessed lighting in the spacious living room and an EV charger ready outlet in the 2-car garage, catering to modern buyer needs and preferences.

Cons

Modest Interior Square Footage: At 1,249 SqFt, the home's interior size is relatively modest for a 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom property, which might be a consideration for buyers seeking more expansive living areas.
Older Construction Year: Built in 1956, while updated, the underlying structure is older, which could imply potential for older systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that may require future maintenance or upgrades not explicitly detailed.
Significant Price Reduction: The property has seen a notable price reduction from its original list price of $1.828M to $1.698M, which could suggest initial overpricing or extended market time, potentially raising questions for prospective buyers.
