Fair
TeardownExcellent
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1949, the property is well-maintained with significant updates like a new roof and double-pane windows. However, the kitchen features dated tile countertops, older cabinetry, and linoleum flooring that appear to be over 20 years old, placing it in the fair category requiring cosmetic modernization.
PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES
- Strategic Location
Situated in a prime West San Jose pocket near Diridon Station, SAP Center, and Santana Row, offering exceptional transit connectivity and proximity to major employment and entertainment hubs.
- Dual-Income Potential
This corner-lot duplex features private entrances on separate streets, providing an ideal 'house hacking' opportunity for owner-occupants to live in one unit while generating rental income from the other.
- Key Structural Upgrades
The property boasts significant recent improvements including a new roof and double-pane windows throughout, reducing immediate maintenance concerns and improving energy efficiency for the owner.
CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- MLS Listing Discrepancy
Lot size discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing lot size in square feet =5227, other record lot size in square feet = 5500.
- Dated Interior Finishes
With a mix of carpet, tile, and linoleum flooring in a 1949 structure, the interiors likely require cosmetic modernization to command top-market rents and appeal to contemporary buyers.
- Shared Amenities
The reliance on shared laundry facilities and a communal backyard may limit privacy and be a competitive disadvantage compared to units with fully independent utility hookups.
