Property is move-in ready.
The property, specifically the unit showcased in the images, has undergone a significant and recent renovation, likely within the last 5-10 years. The kitchen features modern white shaker cabinets, stainless steel appliances, subway tile backsplash, and recessed lighting. The bathroom is similarly updated with a modern vanity, fixtures, and subway tile shower surround. New light grey wood-look laminate flooring has been installed throughout the main living areas and bedrooms. While the home was built in 1971 and retains some older elements like popcorn ceilings and an visible older exterior AC unit, the extensive and stylish updates make the shown unit move-in ready with no immediate renovations required. This aligns well with the 'Good' criteria of being extensively renovated within 5-15 years and being move-in ready, despite not being a full, top-to-bottom renovation.
As a duplex, the property offers immediate rental income potential with one unit already tenant-occupied, making it attractive for investors or owner-occupants seeking supplementary income.
The 'excellent location' provides high walkability to amenities like Princeton Plaza, farmers market, and DeAnza park, plus convenient access to major highways (17/85/87), shopping, and restaurants.
Each unit benefits from a private one-car garage and in-unit laundry, highly sought-after features that enhance tenant appeal and convenience.
Built in 1971, the property may have original systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that could require significant maintenance, repair, or replacement in the near future, despite any partial remodels.
One unit is tenant-occupied, which restricts immediate owner occupancy of that unit and requires coordination for showings, potentially complicating the sales process or a buyer's plans for full occupancy or renovation.
While one unit is noted as 'remodeled,' the description lacks specific details on the extent of the remodel (e.g., kitchen, baths, systems, finishes), and the condition of the non-remodeled unit is not specified, leading to potential unknowns for a buyer.
Beautiful duplex in excellent location. Remodeled 2 bedrooms one bath shown, other side is a 3 bedroom 2 full bath with tenant in place.. Sunny and private courtyards in both units and large fenced backyards. Each unit has a one car garage and laundry. Enjoy walking to Princeton Plaza, farmers market, DeAnza park, minutes to Hwy 17/85/87, Oakridge Mall, shopping, restaurants and much more. Please do not disturb tenants, appointment only.
