Pros & Cons
Pros
Brand New Construction: Built in 2025, this property offers the advantages of modern design, new appliances, and minimal immediate maintenance concerns, appealing to buyers seeking a move-in ready home.
Prime Location & Accessibility: Strategically located adjacent to the highly coveted Willow Glen area, with a quick 10-minute commute to downtown San Jose and minutes from major freeways (87 and 280), ensuring excellent connectivity.
Extensive Community Amenities: Residents will enjoy a wide array of amenities including a welcoming lobby, pool and spa, fitness room, clubhouse, bike storage, outdoor courtyard with BBQs, and an on-site playground, fostering a vibrant community lifestyle.
Natural Surroundings: The property backs up along the Guadalupe River, offering potential for scenic views, direct access to nature, and opportunities for outdoor recreation.
Access to Reputable Schools: Located within the San Jose Unified School District, with access to distinguished schools such as Hammer Montessori (rated 7) and Willow Glen High School (rated 6), which is a significant draw for families.
Cons
High Monthly Association Fees: The substantial monthly association fee of $739 adds a significant ongoing cost to homeownership, which could impact affordability and buyer interest.
Condominium Lifestyle Limitations: As a condominium, the property inherently comes with less privacy, potential for shared wall noise, and restrictions on personal customization compared to a single-family home, which may not suit all buyer preferences.
Future Construction & Potential Delays: With a year built of 2025 and an on-market date in the future, this is likely a pre-sale or under-construction unit, meaning buyers commit without seeing the finished product and may face potential construction delays or changes.
