Pros & Cons
Pros
Great Schools: Middle School: John F. Kennedy Middle School (9/10). High School: Monta Vista High School (10/10).
Prime Location & Top-Rated Schools: Located in Cupertino, within walking distance to highly-rated Monta Vista High (10/10), John F. Kennedy Middle (9/10), and Abraham Lincoln Elementary (8/10) schools, making it ideal for families.
Extensive Modern Updates: The property boasts updated kitchen and bathrooms, double-pane windows, new paint, and new carpet, ensuring a move-in ready condition with reduced immediate maintenance for buyers.
Desirable Townhome Features: As an end unit, it offers enhanced privacy and natural light. The presence of copper plumbing is a significant and durable upgrade, minimizing future plumbing concerns.
Spacious & Functional Layout: Features a spacious layout with two large bedroom suites and a dedicated study room upstairs, providing versatile living and working spaces.
Single-Family Home Feel: The property includes a good-sized backyard, offering outdoor space and a sense of privacy often associated with single-family homes, a rare find in a townhome.
Cons
High Association Fee: A monthly association fee of $550 adds a significant recurring cost to homeownership, which could impact affordability for some buyers.
Townhome Structure Limitations: Despite being an end unit with a backyard, it remains a townhome, implying shared walls and potential restrictions from the Homeowners Association (HOA) that a detached single-family home would not have.
Age of Core Systems: While many cosmetic and plumbing updates are noted, the 1985 build year suggests that other major systems (e.g., HVAC, roof, electrical panel) not explicitly mentioned as updated might be original or older, potentially requiring future investment.
