Condition Rating
Fair
Built in 1980, this property is 44 years old. While it benefits from recent cosmetic updates such as new carpet, linoleum flooring, new bathroom vanities, and a brand-new stove, these are not extensive renovations. The kitchen cabinets appear to be original or an older style, and the bathroom shower/tub surrounds show their age. Crucially, the property relies on wall/window units for heating and cooling, indicating a lack of modern central HVAC. The overall condition is functional and move-in ready due to the recent touch-ups, but major components and aesthetics in the kitchen and bathrooms are outdated, aligning with a 'Fair' condition where the home is aged but maintained with occasional updates, and major components are functional but show signs of being outdated.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Affordability & Low HOA: The property is described as affordable with low HOA fees ($265/month), making it an attractive option for budget-conscious buyers or investors.
Move-in Ready Condition: Recent updates including new carpet, linoleum flooring, bathroom vanities, and a brand-new stove ensure the home is move-in ready, minimizing immediate buyer expenses.
Convenient Location: Strategically located next to a city park, schools, restaurants, Gilroy Premium Outlets, and with easy access to HWY 101, offering high convenience for daily living and commuting.
Indoor Laundry: The inclusion of indoor laundry facilities provides a significant convenience, a desirable feature for townhome living.
Private Outdoor Space: An outdoor patio offers a private area for relaxation and outdoor enjoyment, enhancing the lifestyle appeal of the townhome.
Cons
Age of Property: Built in 1980, the property is over 40 years old, which may imply older major systems (e.g., HVAC, plumbing, electrical) that could require future maintenance or upgrades beyond the recent cosmetic updates.
Compact Living Space: With 908 sqft for a 2-bedroom unit, the living space is relatively compact, which might limit appeal for buyers seeking more spacious accommodations or growing families.
Townhome Living Constraints: As a townhome, it involves shared walls and adherence to HOA rules and regulations, which can be a drawback for buyers preferring the autonomy and privacy of a single-family home.
