Condition Rating
Good
While built in 1974, this property has undergone significant and recent updates, making it move-in ready. The kitchen is a standout, featuring new quartz countertops, custom cabinetry, and new appliances, presenting a modern and high-quality finish. New flooring (LVP downstairs, carpet upstairs) and fresh interior paint contribute to a very contemporary feel. Most light fixtures are modern. However, the visible bathroom, while clean and functional, displays tile and vanity styles that appear to be from an earlier renovation (likely 10-20 years ago) rather than brand new. This prevents an 'Excellent' rating, as not all components are 'new or virtually new.' Overall, the property is well-maintained with minimal wear and tear, and major systems appear functional, aligning with a 'Good' condition score.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Prime Location & Accessibility: Conveniently located in Almaden Valley near top-rated schools, extensive amenities (golf courses, trails, parks, shopping, Whole Foods, Costco), and major freeways (85/87/280) for easy commute to tech hubs.
Extensive Recent Updates: Features fresh interior paint, new flooring upstairs, new modern fixtures throughout, and an updated kitchen with quartz countertops, custom cabinetry, and new appliances, minimizing immediate buyer expenses.
HOA Amenities & Low Dues: Benefits from low HOA dues ($510.0) that include access to lush private grounds, a pool, and a spa, offering desirable community amenities.
Well-Maintained & Bright Floor Plan: Described as a 'well maintained' home with a 'bright and airy floor plan' and 'generous living space,' appealing to a wide range of buyers seeking comfort and functionality.
Spacious Primary Suite & Flexible Layout: Includes a spacious primary suite with a vaulted ceiling, private bath, and ample closet space, plus three additional bedrooms providing flexibility for family or work-from-home needs.
Cons
Small Lot Size: The lot size of 1728 sqft is relatively small for a 4-bedroom home, which might limit outdoor living space beyond the private patio and could be a drawback for buyers seeking a larger yard.
Older Construction (1974): While updated, the property was built in 1974. This age might raise concerns about the condition of original systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical, roof, HVAC) not explicitly mentioned as replaced or upgraded, potentially leading to future maintenance costs.
Recent Price Reduction: The property has seen a price reduction from an original list price of $1,348,888 to $1,298,000, which could indicate initial overpricing or slower market interest, potentially impacting perceived value or future appreciation.
