More Insights
Built in 1972 (53 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1972, has undergone significant recent cosmetic updates, including new LVP flooring and fresh paint throughout, making it move-in ready. The kitchen features updated white shaker-style cabinets with modern black hardware, clean countertops, and functional black appliances, though the backsplash is a bit dated. Bathrooms also show updates with modern vanities, fixtures, and clean tile work. While the core systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) may be older due to the original build year, the visible areas are well-maintained and aesthetically pleasing, aligning with a property extensively renovated within the last 5-15 years rather than a full, brand-new renovation.

Pros & Cons
Pros
Turn-Key & Updated Condition: The property is described as 'Turn Key' with an updated split-level floor plan, new LVP flooring, and fresh paint throughout, indicating minimal immediate investment for new owners.
Prime Location & Accessibility: Strategically located across from John Muir Hospital and a stone's throw from Heather Farms Park, offering convenient access to essential services and recreational amenities.
Abundant Natural Light & Architectural Appeal: Features a vaulted ceiling living room with a wall of windows, maximizing natural light and enhancing the spacious feel of the main living area.
Private Outdoor Entertaining Space: A super private backyard patio with lush trees and landscaping provides an ideal setting for outdoor entertaining and relaxation.
Excellent School District: Located within a highly-rated school district, including Northgate High (9/10), Foothill Middle (8/10), and Bancroft Elementary (7/10), appealing to families.
Cons
High HOA Fees: The association fee of $598.0 per month is substantial and adds a significant recurring cost to homeownership.
Townhouse Structure Limitations: As a townhouse, it typically involves shared walls and a smaller lot size (1950 sqft), which may offer less privacy and outdoor space compared to a detached single-family home.
Potential for Older Core Systems: Despite cosmetic updates, the 1972 build year suggests that core systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical, HVAC) may be original or older, potentially requiring future maintenance or upgrades not explicitly mentioned as completed.
