Key pros and cons
Top Pros:
Exceptional Location & Commuter Access: Strategically located minutes from major tech employers (Cisco, Google, Apple, Amazon) and key transportation arteries (BART, HWY 680/880/101), offering unparalleled convenience for professionals.
Top Cons:
Townhouse Ownership & Limited Private Land: Despite living like a single-family home, it's an end-unit townhouse with a very small 1,160 sqft lot, meaning shared walls and minimal private outdoor space compared to a detached house.

More Insights
Built in 2006 (19 years old).
Condition: This property, built in 2006, is 18 years old, but the description explicitly states 'New HVAC, hardwood floors, crown molding, shutters, fresh paint.' This indicates significant recent updates that bring it closer to a newly renovated state. The kitchen features high-end Sub-Zero, GE Monogram, and Bosch appliances, granite counters, and custom cabinetry, all in excellent condition as seen in the images. The bathrooms are also well-appointed with a soaking tub and glass shower in the primary suite. The overall aesthetic is modern and well-maintained, with high ceilings, recessed lighting, and plantation shutters throughout. The property shows no signs of deferred maintenance and meets current quality standards, justifying an 'excellent' rating due to the extensive recent updates and high-quality features.

Pros & Cons
Pros
Exceptional Location & Commuter Access: Strategically located minutes from major tech employers (Cisco, Google, Apple, Amazon) and key transportation arteries (BART, HWY 680/880/101), offering unparalleled convenience for professionals.
Luxury Finishes & Quality Construction: Built by Toll Brothers, featuring high-end kitchen appliances (Sub-Zero, GE Monogram, Bosch), granite counters, custom cabinetry, and a luxurious primary suite, reflecting superior craftsmanship.
Versatile & Bright Floor Plan: An end-unit designed to live like a single-family home, boasting soaring 14-ft ceilings, abundant natural light from 30+ windows, and a valuable ground-floor bed/bath ideal for guests or multi-generational living.
Extensive Community Amenities: Access to resort-style amenities including a pool, spa, gym, and clubhouse, enhancing lifestyle and offering recreational opportunities within a low HOA structure.
Recent Upgrades & Modern Comforts: Equipped with new HVAC, hardwood floors, crown molding, fresh paint, a gas fireplace, built-in speakers, and a 2-car garage with extra storage, ensuring move-in readiness and modern living.
Cons
Townhouse Ownership & Limited Private Land: Despite living like a single-family home, it's an end-unit townhouse with a very small 1,160 sqft lot, meaning shared walls and minimal private outdoor space compared to a detached house.
Ongoing HOA Fees: While providing amenities, the monthly association fee of $333 represents a recurring cost that some buyers might prefer to avoid or find restrictive.
Potential for Noise/Privacy: As an attached unit, there's an inherent potential for noise transfer from neighbors and less privacy compared to a detached single-family residence.
