Condition Analysis
OVERALL CONDITION SCORE
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1952, this home is well-maintained and 'freshened up' with a nicely updated bathroom and a newer stamped-concrete driveway (2017). However, the kitchen remains in its original 1950s state, and the single-bathroom layout is outdated for the area. It is functional and charming but requires modernization of the kitchen and potentially other major systems to meet current quality standards.
PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES
- High Available Lot Utilization
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 16440, living area = 1150.
- Great Schools
Elementary School: Burton Valley Elementary School (10/10). Middle School: M. H. Stanley Middle School (9/10). High School: Acalanes High School (10/10).
- Expansive Lot & Development Potential
The massive 0.38-acre lot provides a rare opportunity for home expansion or the addition of an ADU, offering significant long-term value and flexibility in a premier neighborhood.
CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- Original Kitchen Condition
While the bathroom has been updated, the kitchen remains in its original 1952 state, requiring a modern renovation to meet current buyer expectations.
- Limited Square Footage & Bathrooms
With only 1,150 square feet of living space and a single bathroom, the current layout may be restrictive for families seeking modern master suites or multiple washrooms.
