More Insights
Built in 1947 (79 years old).
Condition: The property has received significant recent cosmetic updates, including new flooring, fresh interior and exterior paint, and newly landscaped yards, making the main living areas and exterior very appealing and move-in ready. However, the kitchen features dated wood cabinets, tile countertops, and older white appliances, and the bathrooms also retain their original or older style with tile countertops and vanities. While functional and clean, these key areas show signs of being outdated and would likely require substantial renovation to meet current quality and style standards, preventing a 'Good' rating despite the other improvements.

Pros & Cons
Pros
Extensive Recent Updates: The property boasts new floors, fresh interior and exterior paint, and newly landscaped front and back yards, offering a move-in ready and aesthetically pleasing home.
Open-Concept Living & Natural Light: An open-concept living area bathed in natural light creates a modern, spacious, and inviting atmosphere.
Desirable Interior Amenities: Features such as a cozy fireplace, a functional kitchen with a breakfast bar, and a primary bedroom with an ensuite bathroom enhance comfort and daily living.

Convenient Parking & Desirable Location: A one-car attached garage with additional driveway parking, combined with its 'North of Foothill Boulevard' address, offers practical benefits and a sought-after neighborhood character.
Cons
MLS Listing Discrepancy: Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 3, other record bedroom count = 4.
Older Construction: Built in 1947, while updated, the home's age may imply potential for older infrastructure (e.g., plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that could require future maintenance or upgrades not explicitly mentioned.
Limited Lot Size: The 3,764 sqft lot is relatively small for a single-family residence, potentially limiting outdoor expansion or appeal for buyers desiring more expansive yard space.
High Price Point for Square Footage: A list price of $998,000 for 1,268 sqft is a premium, which could narrow the buyer pool despite the recent renovations and desirable location.
