Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1951, the property is well-maintained but significantly dated. While it features some updates like dual-pane windows and laminate flooring, the kitchen and bathrooms appear to have been renovated over 20 years ago, featuring older oak cabinetry and tile countertops that require modernization.
The property is ideally situated near the Meta campus, Highway 101, and the Dumbarton Bridge, offering an exceptional commute for Silicon Valley professionals and easy access to major retail hubs like IKEA and Target.
Beyond the primary square footage, the home includes a bonus sunroom and a large 6,366 sqft lot with two storage sheds, providing significant extra utility for a home office, hobby space, or gardening.
The home features attractive upgrades including a tile-designed front porch, dual-pane windows, crown molding, and a mix of laminate and original wood flooring, creating a warm and move-in-ready aesthetic.
With only one full bathroom and one half-bath serving three bedrooms, the layout may present challenges for larger households or those desiring a dedicated primary suite.
Built in 1951, the property may require more intensive long-term maintenance of core systems compared to newer constructions, despite its various cosmetic and window upgrades.
