Condition Rating
Excellent

Despite being built in 1949, the property is described as a 'renovated mid-century property,' and the images strongly support an extensive, high-quality renovation. Both bathrooms are completely updated with modern vanities, subway tiling, new fixtures, and glass enclosures, appearing virtually new. The entire visible interior features new, consistent light-colored LVP/laminate flooring, recessed lighting, and fresh paint, indicating a comprehensive and recent overhaul. While no kitchen images are provided, the description of an 'open floor plan' with a 'seamless transition' to the kitchen, combined with the consistent modern aesthetic throughout the rest of the home, suggests the kitchen has also been updated to a similar excellent standard. The exterior also appears well-maintained with a new roof. This property meets the criteria for 'Excellent' as it has been extensively renovated recently, with all visible components being new or virtually new and meeting current quality standards.
Pros & Cons

Cons

Lower-Rated Local Schools: Several nearby public schools (high and middle) have ratings of 1 or 2, which may be a concern for families prioritizing school quality.
Potential for Older Infrastructure: Despite renovations, the 1949 build year suggests potential for original systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that may not have been fully upgraded, potentially leading to future maintenance needs.
Lack of Explicit Cooling System: The description does not mention any air conditioning or cooling system, which could be a comfort drawback during warmer periods in Oakland.
