Pros & Cons
Pros
Extensive Modern Renovation: The property has undergone significant, permitted upgrades, transforming it into an 'almost brand new house' with a new kitchen, appliances, dual pane windows, hardwood floors, granite counters, and updated bathrooms, ensuring a move-in ready experience.
Permitted ADU with Income Potential: A newly permitted accessory dwelling unit (ADU) in the back, complete with a bedroom, living room, full bath, and kitchen, offers excellent flexibility for rental income or multi-generational living arrangements.
Strategic Walkable Location: Situated within walking distance to Kaiser Permanente and a few blocks from City Hall, the property boasts a highly convenient and walkable location, providing easy access to essential services and employment opportunities.
Dual-Unit Configuration: The property features a main house with 4 beds/2.5 baths and a separate 1-bed/1-bath ADU, providing a versatile layout suitable for owner-occupancy with rental income or a full investment property.
Modern Interior Finishes: The recent renovations include high-quality modern finishes such as dual-pane windows, hardwood flooring, granite countertops, and smart mirrors, enhancing both aesthetics and functionality.
Cons
MLS Listing Discrepancy: Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 2000, other record living area = 1560. Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 5, other record bedroom count = 4.
Subpar School Ratings: The proximity to several schools with low ratings (e.g., Lovonya Dejean Middle, Helms Middle, Kennedy High) may be a concern for families prioritizing highly-rated educational institutions, potentially affecting long-term appeal.
Age of Original Structure: Despite extensive renovations, the property's original construction year of 1906 means that some foundational or unseen structural components may still be over a century old, potentially requiring future maintenance or inspection beyond the visible upgrades.
Undefined Subdivision: The 'Other' designation for the subdivision name might indicate a lack of a distinct or established neighborhood identity, which could influence perceived community amenities or future resale value compared to properties in clearly defined subdivisions.
