Property is extensive renovation needed.
Built in 1973 and described as largely original, the property is over 50 years old without significant renovations. Images confirm a dated kitchen with original cabinetry and tile, and bathrooms with 1970s-era fixtures. While well-maintained, the age and lack of updates necessitate a full rehab to meet modern standards.
Elementary School: Foster City Elementary School (9/10).
Situated in the desirable Isle Cove community, the property offers immediate access to waterfront trails and lagoons, and is served by high-performing schools including Foster City Elementary (Rating 9).
The home features windows on three sides, vaulted ceilings, and a private patio, maximizing natural light and providing a more spacious feel than the 1,370 square footage suggests.
The home requires comprehensive cosmetic and functional updates to meet modern luxury standards, which will necessitate a significant post-purchase capital investment.
With 89 days on the market, the property may carry a 'stale' listing perception, potentially indicating that the current list price does not fully account for the required renovation costs.
