Condition Analysis

Excellent
TeardownExcellent
Property is new construction or fully renovated.
This 1911 home has undergone a comprehensive, permitted 'like-new' remodel within the last few years. It features a brand-new kitchen with modern cabinetry and stainless appliances, four updated bathrooms with contemporary finishes, new flooring, new windows, and a new foundation, placing it in mint condition with no immediate maintenance required.
PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES
- Comprehensive Modern Renovation
The property has been architecturally redesigned and fully permitted with a new foundation, roof, windows, and systems, offering a 'like-new' living experience within a classic 1911 structure.
- Strategic NOBE Location
Situated in the highly desirable North Oakland/Berkeley/Emeryville corridor, the home offers exceptional urban convenience with proximity to Berkeley Bowl West, biotech hubs, and major commuter arteries like MacArthur BART.
- High Utility Floor Plan
With 4 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms, the home provides a rare and functional density for its square footage, making it ideal for large families or high-end co-living opportunities.
CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- Lack of Soft Landscaping
The backyard is entirely cemented; while excellent for secure off-street parking, it lacks traditional green space, gardens, or permeable surfaces often preferred by residential buyers.
- Inconsistent School Ratings
While the location is prime for commuting, several of the immediate neighborhood public schools carry very low ratings (1-3), which may impact long-term resale value for education-focused families.
