Condition Rating
Fair
Built in 1966, this mid-century home is well-maintained and offers stunning views. However, the kitchen features original or very dated wood cabinetry, older countertops, and flooring, despite having updated stainless steel appliances. The bathrooms also exhibit dated vanities and tile work. While functional and clean, these key areas show significant signs of being outdated and would require substantial renovation to meet current aesthetic standards, aligning with the 'aged but maintained' and 'major components are functional but show signs of being outdated' criteria for a 'Fair' condition.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Panoramic Views: The property boasts stunning, unobstructed views of the western skyline, San Francisco, the Golden Gate Bridge, and the Bay Area from nearly every room, including bedrooms, living areas, dining room, and kitchen.
Expansive Living Space: With over 4000 sq ft across 3 levels, including 4+ bedrooms, an office, and 3.5 bathrooms, the home offers generous great rooms and expansive living areas designed for retreat, work, socializing, or relaxation.
Exceptional Outdoor Amenities: Features a pristine pool with views, multiple decks, and various outdoor spaces for entertaining and enjoying nature, complemented by a convenient changing room with a shower.
Prime Berkeley Hills Location: Nestled in the desirable North Berkeley Hills, the home offers proximity to Tilden Park trails and is just minutes away from the vibrant shops and restaurants of Solano Avenue, North Berkeley, and College Avenue.
Unique Mid-Century Charm: A rare offering, this mid-century home has had only one owner, preserving its distinctive style and character, making it a unique find in the market.

Cons

Significant Price Reductions: The property has undergone multiple price reductions, starting from $2.65M down to $2.26M, which may indicate initial overpricing or market resistance, potentially raising buyer concerns about its current valuation.
Age of Property & Potential Updates: Built in 1966, while offering mid-century charm, the age of the property suggests that major systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical, HVAC) and some interior finishes may be original or dated, potentially requiring significant investment for modernization.
High Maintenance Requirements: The presence of a pristine pool and a vast garden on a 12,648 sq ft lot implies substantial ongoing maintenance costs and time commitment, which could be a deterrent for some potential buyers.
