Condition Rating
Good
Built in 1971, this property has undergone significant recent renovations, including a new HVAC system, new tankless water heater, new roof, and fresh interior/exterior paint, making it move-in ready. The main bathroom is extensively updated with modern finishes, including a new vanity, contemporary tile, and glass-enclosed shower. While the ADU kitchen and a second bathroom show older styles and finishes, they appear functional and well-maintained. The property benefits from updated major systems and recent cosmetic improvements, preventing it from being 'Fair' but not quite 'Excellent' due to some areas retaining older aesthetics.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Income-Generating ADU: The property includes a 2-bedroom, 1-bath Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) with a separate entrance, offering significant potential for rental income, multi-generational living, or a dedicated home office space.
Extensive Recent Upgrades: Major capital improvements have been completed, including a new HVAC system, new tankless water heater, new roof, new skylight, and fresh interior/exterior paint, ensuring modern comfort and reduced immediate maintenance for the buyer.
Prime Location & Accessibility: Located in a peaceful cul-de-sac next to Almaden Valley and Almaden Lake, the property boasts excellent walkability to public transit (VTA), Oakridge Mall, supermarkets, EV charging stations, and convenient access to freeways 85 and 87.
Unique Backyard Orchard: The backyard features a diverse and mature collection of fruit trees (avocado, mandarin, jujube, persimmon, pomegranate, plum, dragon fruit, goji berries), providing a unique lifestyle amenity and potential for fresh produce.
Attractive Investment Value: The property is currently listed below its estimated market value ($1.67M vs. $1.77M), presenting a potential opportunity for immediate equity gain for a savvy buyer.
Cons
Original Construction Age: Built in 1971, the main structure is over 50 years old. While significant updates have been made, potential buyers may have concerns about the age of underlying systems not explicitly mentioned as replaced (e.g., original plumbing, electrical wiring beyond specific fixtures).
Proximity to Lower-Rated Elementary School: The closest elementary school, Allen at Steinbeck, has a rating of 3, which could be a deterrent for families prioritizing top-tier local elementary education within walking distance.
Moderate Lot Size: At 5600 sqft, the lot size is functional but may be considered moderate for a property of this size (5 beds, 3 baths, ADU) in a desirable San Jose neighborhood, potentially limiting expansive outdoor living space.
