Condition Rating
Excellent
This property has undergone a comprehensive and recent renovation, aligning perfectly with the 'Excellent' criteria. Despite being built in 1972, the description highlights a 3-year-old roof, brand-new luxury vinyl plank flooring, fresh drywall, recessed lighting, new plumbing, and a new electrical system with a new panel. The kitchen features classic shaker cabinetry, quartz countertops, and premium LG stainless steel appliances, all appearing new and modern in the images. Both bathrooms have been completely remodeled with modern vanities, elegant tile, and stylish fixtures. The overall aesthetic is contemporary and move-in ready, with no signs of deferred maintenance. The only minor consideration is the lack of explicit mention of a new central cooling system, but the extensive updates to all other major systems and finishes warrant an 'Excellent' rating.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Comprehensive Modern Renovation: The property has undergone a full renovation, including brand-new luxury vinyl plank flooring, fresh drywall, recessed lighting, new interior doors, and epoxy-coated garage flooring, creating a contemporary and move-in ready home.
Updated Core Systems: Key infrastructure has been recently updated with a 3-year-old roof, new plumbing, new electrical wiring, and a new electrical panel, significantly reducing immediate maintenance and repair concerns for a buyer.
Gourmet Kitchen & Remodeled Bathrooms: The home features a gourmet kitchen with classic shaker cabinetry, quartz countertops, and premium LG stainless steel appliances, alongside completely remodeled bathrooms with modern vanities and stylish fixtures.
Prime Location & Accessibility: Located in the highly sought-after Blossom Valley neighborhood, the property offers excellent access to SR-85, Blossom Hill Road, Oakridge Mall, diverse shopping, dining, and everyday conveniences.
Enhanced Curb Appeal & Low Maintenance Landscaping: Professionally designed front and backyard landscaping not only boosts curb appeal but also provides low-maintenance outdoor enjoyment, adding immediate value and appeal.
Cons
Original Construction Year: Despite extensive renovations, the home was originally built in 1972, meaning the underlying structure and foundation are older, which some buyers might view as a long-term consideration.
Absence of Central Air Conditioning: The property description does not mention a central cooling system, which could be a significant drawback for comfort during San Jose's warmer months and may require future investment.
Listed Above Estimated Value: The current listing price is approximately 6% higher than the property's estimated market value, which could impact buyer perception and potentially lead to longer market time or price negotiations.
