Fair
TeardownExcellent
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1905, this 'cosmetic fixer' has had major structural work completed (foundation and seismic), but the interior is dated. The kitchen features older oak cabinetry and tile from several decades ago, and the bathroom fixtures show significant age and wear, placing the interior condition in the >20-year-old category requiring updates.
PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES
- Prime Walkable Location
Boasting a 95 Walk Score and 97 Bike Score, this property is perfectly situated near the Gourmet Ghetto and BART, offering unparalleled access to Berkeley’s best amenities without needing a car.
- Significant Structural Upgrades
The home features a newer foundation, completed seismic work, and a brand-new deck, addressing the most costly infrastructure concerns and providing a solid base for cosmetic improvements.
- Private Outdoor Space
Set back from the street for enhanced tranquility, the property includes a private backyard, a new entertaining deck, and a detached storage shed, which is rare for a one-bedroom urban residence.
CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- Cosmetic Fixer Condition
The interior is identified as a cosmetic fixer, meaning buyers will need to budget additional time and capital to update the aesthetics and finishes to modern standards.
- Limited Living Area
At just 768 square feet with a single bedroom, the property offers limited flexibility for growing households or those requiring a dedicated home office space.
About 1711 Milvia A
