Property is move-in ready.
Despite being built in 1955, the property description highlights significant and recent updates. It features '2 remodeled bathrooms' and a 'bright & cheery kitchen' with stainless steel appliances, a garden window, and a skylight, indicating modern functionality and appeal. The house is also 'freshly painted, inside & out,' suggesting recent cosmetic improvements. A garage conversion adds valuable bonus space. These updates make the home move-in ready with no immediate renovation required, aligning with the 'Good' condition criteria, even without interior images to confirm the style and extent of the remodels.
Situated at the end of a quiet street with no through traffic, offering convenience to high-tech offices, freeways, restaurants, shops, and direct access to the Palo Alto/Mountain View bike path.
Features two remodeled bathrooms, a bright kitchen with stainless steel appliances, garden window, skylight, and included washer/dryer. The house has also been freshly painted inside and out.
The garage has been thoughtfully converted into a bonus room with cabinets, work surfaces, and glass double doors opening to the deck, providing flexible living or office space.
Built in 1955, while cosmetic updates are present, there's no mention of significant upgrades to core systems like plumbing, electrical, or HVAC, which could lead to future maintenance considerations.
The garage has been converted into a bonus room, meaning there is no traditional enclosed garage space for vehicle parking or dedicated storage, which some buyers may prefer.
At 1344 sqft, the property offers a relatively modest living space for its nearly $1.9 million list price in the Mountain View market, potentially limiting appeal for buyers seeking more expansive homes.
