Property is moderate renovation needed.
The property was built in 1972 (52 years old) and, while well-maintained with some cosmetic updates like newer flooring and fresh paint, the listing description suggests it is 'ready to personalize,' which typically indicates dated kitchen and bathroom facilities. At over 50 years old without a comprehensive recent renovation, the core systems and wet areas likely require modernization to meet current standards.
A standout feature of the home is the large, versatile sunroom that adds flexible living space for a home office, fitness area, or entertaining while maximizing natural light and backyard views.
The property sits on a comfortable 6,090± sq ft lot, providing a private backyard with ample space for gardening, play, and outdoor dining, complemented by a two-car garage and wide driveway.
Ideally situated in an established San Jose neighborhood, the home offers excellent proximity to major commute routes, shopping, dining, and parks, making it highly accessible.
Built in 1972, the property is noted as offering 'flexibility to personalize,' indicating that buyers may need to budget for modern updates and cosmetic renovations to bring it up to contemporary standards.
Although the assigned high school is highly rated, the closest elementary school (Allen at Steinbeck School, located just 0.34 miles away) has a lower rating of 3 out of 10, which may be a drawback for families with young children.
