Condition Rating
Fair
The property, built in 1967, is described as a 'barn partially converted into a 1,943 sq. ft. residence,' intended to offer 'immediate functionality while you design and build the residence of your dreams.' This indicates it's a temporary or secondary dwelling, not a fully renovated, modern home. While the exterior appears maintained in the images, the 'partially converted' nature and the age of the original structure (57 years old) strongly suggest that the interior, including the kitchen and bathroom, would be basic, functional, and likely outdated, rather than recently updated or high-quality. It is livable but clearly requires substantial updates to meet modern living standards for a primary residence, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Exceptional Views & Location: This exclusive 2.72-acre hilltop estate offers breathtaking, unobstructed panoramic views of Mt. Diablo and the surrounding rolling hills, providing a truly unique and desirable setting.
Expansive Land & Development Potential: The generous 118,483 sqft lot (2.72 acres) presents a rare canvas for developing an architecturally stunning luxury estate, an equestrian haven, or a private vineyard.
Immediate Functionality & Future Vision: Includes a partially converted 1,943 sq. ft. barn residence, offering immediate functionality and a comfortable base while designing and building a custom dream home.
Privacy & Exclusivity: Positioned as a private hilltop sanctuary, the property ensures seclusion and an exclusive living experience away from the bustle.
Top-Rated School District: Located within a highly-regarded school district, including Monte Vista High School (rating 10), Rancho Romero Elementary (rating 9), and Los Cerros Middle School (rating 9), enhancing its appeal for families.
Cons
Undeveloped Primary Residence: The existing 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom, 1,943 sqft structure is a partially converted barn, not a fully realized luxury home, necessitating significant construction or renovation to achieve its full potential as a primary residence.
Substantial Additional Investment Required: The list price primarily reflects the land value and potential, implying a considerable additional financial commitment will be needed for the construction of a new primary residence or extensive upgrades to the existing structure.
Limited Immediate Luxury Living: Buyers seeking a move-in ready, high-end luxury home will find the current dwelling insufficient, as it serves more as a temporary or functional space during the development phase.
