This property presents a Strong Value Opportunity with a List Price of $1,100,000—positioned well below the $1,020,876 Fair Market Value by -7%. While the home maintains a Fair Condition Rating, the inclusion of an adjacent 6,250 sq. ft. R-1 zoned vacant lot provides significant upside for expansion or development. Featuring a wood-burning fireplace and private patio, this asset offers a unique blend of immediate utility and long-term growth potential. This is an ideal acquisition for Buy-and-Hold Investors or Owner-Occupants seeking to maximize land value in the Rose Garden neighborhood.
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1949, the property is over 75 years old. While it has received recent cosmetic 'refreshes' such as new carpet, fresh paint, and updated electrical, the kitchen and bathrooms are dated and described as needing updates to reflect personal style. The presence of popcorn ceilings and older cabinetry/appliances places it in the Fair category as it is functional but requires modernization.
The property includes an adjacent 6,250 sq. ft. R-1 zoned vacant lot, offering a rare opportunity for expansion, a second residence, or significant outdoor development in a high-demand area.
Situated in one of San Jose's most desirable neighborhoods, the home provides excellent proximity to Santana Row, Valley Fair, and major Silicon Valley employers, ensuring long-term value.
The home features key improvements including updated electrical systems, fresh interior paint, and new carpeting, providing a clean slate for immediate occupancy while planning further renovations.
The kitchen and bathrooms are in original or functional condition and will likely require a full remodel to meet modern aesthetic and luxury standards.
Built in 1949, the property may possess architectural and infrastructure limitations typical of its era that could necessitate further modernization beyond the recent cosmetic refreshes.
