Property is extensive renovation needed.
Built in 1954, this property requires substantial rehabilitation and is marketed primarily for its land value and 'vision' potential. Interior images reveal heavily stained and soiled carpeting, a dated kitchen with aging tile countertops and floral accents, and unfinished laundry hookups with holes in the drywall. The overall condition indicates significant deferred maintenance, making it uncomfortable for immediate occupancy without major updates to flooring, walls, and systems.
The 6,250 sq. ft. lot is a significant asset in the land-scarce Peninsula, offering ample space for expansion, ADU potential, or a complete rebuild.
Situated in the heart of East Palo Alto, the property provides exceptional proximity to major tech employers and the high-demand Silicon Valley corridor.
Priced competitively with a motivated seller, this property represents a rare entry-level opportunity for investors or buyers looking to build equity through renovation.
The 1954-built home is marketed as a 'vision' project, implying that significant capital and effort are required to bring the structure up to modern standards.
At just 1,020 sq. ft. for a three-bedroom configuration, the living spaces are notably small and may require a layout reconfiguration to be functional for modern families.
