Condition Analysis
See Full ReportOVERALL CONDITION SCORE
Fair
TeardownExcellent
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1966, the property is exceptionally well-maintained but remains aesthetically dated. While it features newer paint and carpet, the kitchen and bathrooms reflect a renovation style likely 20-25 years old (oak cabinetry, tile countertops, and older fixtures). At this price point, the home is functional and move-in ready but requires modernization of primary systems and surfaces to meet current luxury standards.
PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES
- High Available Lot Utilization
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 12610, living area = 2685.
- Prime Location & Top-Tier Schooling
Situated in the prestigious Dry Creek neighborhood of Willow Glen, the property is just 0.25 miles from the highly-rated Booksin Elementary School, offering significant appeal for families.
- Expansive Lot & Versatile Outbuildings
The rare 12,600 sq ft lot features a manicured yard and a detached electrified storage unit, providing excellent potential for a home office, workshop, or creative studio.
CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- Potential for Further Modernization
While the bathrooms are updated and there is new paint and carpet, the 1966 construction may require additional investment to modernize the kitchen and core systems to match the $3.3M price point.
- Middle School Rating Disparity
Despite the excellent elementary school rating, the assigned middle school has a significantly lower rating, which may be a concern for buyers focused on long-term educational consistency.
