Mountain View, California 94040
This High-Potential Redevelopment Asset is listed at $2,798,000, reflecting a market premium over its $2,612,801 Fair Market Value due to the extreme scarcity of its 9,885 sqft lot. With a Condition Rating of 5, the existing 1948 structure requires a total rebuild or comprehensive value-add renovation to maximize the site's utility. Situated on a private cul-de-sac near Top-Rated Schools like Georgina P. Blach Junior High (10/10), the property offers significant long-term appreciation potential through site optimization. This is a strategic acquisition for Developers or Owner-Builders.
