Condition Rating
Excellent
Despite being built in 1900, the property has undergone an extensive and high-quality renovation, as evidenced by the listing description and images. The kitchen features new white shaker cabinets, modern white quartz countertops, and new stainless steel appliances (LG refrigerator, dishwasher, electric cooktop). The bathroom is also completely updated with a modern floating vanity, backlit LED mirror, and a stylish walk-in shower with black fixtures and hexagonal floor tiles. Throughout the home, there is new laminate flooring, recessed lighting, fresh paint, new interior/exterior doors, and double-pane windows. All components appear new or virtually new, meeting current quality standards with no deferred maintenance, aligning perfectly with the 'excellent' criteria for an extensively renovated property.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Extensive Recent Renovations: The property boasts significant recent upgrades including new kitchen cabinets, countertops, appliances, interior/exterior doors, paint, efficient lighting, and double-pane windows, making it largely move-in ready.
Competitive Entry Price: Positioned as 'one of the lowest priced single-family homes' and a 'best starter house' in San Jose, offering an accessible entry point into a high-demand market.
Desirable San Jose Location: Located in San Jose, California, a robust real estate market known for its strong economy, job opportunities, and good school districts.
Significant Price Reduction: The list price has been reduced from $845,000 to $750,000, indicating a more attractive value proposition for potential buyers.
Energy Efficiency Upgrades: Inclusion of efficient lighting and double-pane windows contributes to lower utility costs and improved comfort for future homeowners.
Cons
Short Sale Contingency: The sale is 'subject to short sale approval by lender,' which can lead to a prolonged, uncertain, and potentially complex closing process.
Compact Living Space: With only 789 square feet, 2 bedrooms, and 1 bathroom, the property offers limited living space, which may not suit larger families or those desiring more room.
Historic Property Age: Built in 1900, despite recent cosmetic renovations, the underlying original structure and systems (e.g., foundation, plumbing, electrical) may still pose potential long-term maintenance concerns not addressed by the listed updates.
