More Insights
Built in 1992 (34 years old).
Condition: Built in 1992, this property has undergone significant and high-quality updates, particularly in the kitchen and bathrooms, which appear virtually new with modern finishes, high-end stainless steel appliances (including a Sub-Zero style refrigerator and double ovens), quartz countertops, and contemporary fixtures. The flooring throughout, including hardwood and newer-looking LVP/laminate, is in excellent condition, and the paint is fresh. While the visible interior elements are of excellent, modern quality, the property's age (32 years) and the lack of explicit mention of recent extensive renovations to all major systems (HVAC, electrical, plumbing) prevent it from reaching an 'Excellent' score. However, it is clearly move-in ready with no immediate renovations required, and the updated key areas make it a very strong 'Good' bordering on 'Excellent'.

Access to Highly-Rated Schools: The property benefits from proximity to excellent public schools, including Carlmont High School with a rating of 9, which is a significant draw for families.
Cons
MLS Listing Discrepancy: Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 6570, other record living area = 5538.
Premium Price Point: The $6.8 million asking price positions the property in the ultra-luxury segment, which naturally narrows the pool of potential buyers.
Specific Architectural Style: The 'Mediterranean-inspired design,' while exquisite, is a distinct aesthetic that may not appeal to all high-end buyers, potentially limiting its market appeal compared to more universally preferred contemporary styles.
Potential for Dated Systems/Amenities: Built in 1992, while custom and well-maintained, the absence of explicit mentions of recent major system upgrades (e.g., smart home technology, energy efficiency) or expected luxury outdoor amenities like a pool/spa could be a perceived weakness for discerning buyers at this price point, potentially requiring future investment.
