Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1954, this property falls into the fair category as it is aged but functional. The kitchen has been updated with recessed lighting and stainless steel appliances, but the dark wood cabinetry and flooring reflect styles from 15-20 years ago. While the home appears maintained, the description notes unverified garage and room conversions, and the overall aesthetic is dated, requiring minor updates to meet modern standards.
The conversion of the garage into an extra room and the master bedroom into a study with an additional bathroom provides significant potential for rental income or multi-generational living.
Priced competitively under $900,000 in the San Jose market, this property offers a rare affordable entry point for first-time homebuyers and investors in Silicon Valley.
The single-level floor plan offers an accessible and efficient living space that is highly desirable for a wide range of buyers, including those looking for ease of maintenance.
The garage and master bedroom modifications require careful independent verification to ensure they meet local building codes and are properly permitted, which could pose a risk to future value or financing.
With over 130 days on the market and a recent price reduction, the property may face challenges regarding buyer perception or potential underlying condition issues that have deterred previous offers.
Welcome to 10170 Meadow Lane, an excellent opportunity for first-time homebuyers and investors. This single-story home features three bedrooms and one bathroom. The master bedroom has been converted into a study with its own bathroom. Additionally, the garage has been transformed into an extra room, creating significant rental income potential. All buyers are advised to independently verify the accuracy of all information through appropriate professionals to ensure satisfaction and to rely solely on their own information.
