Condition Analysis
See Full ReportOVERALL CONDITION SCORE
Fair
TeardownExcellent
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1953, the home has received recent cosmetic 'refreshes' including refinished hardwood floors and new light fixtures. However, the bathrooms feature dated square tile countertops, older gold-tone shower trim, and fixtures likely exceeding 20 years in age, placing the core systems and wet areas in the 'Fair' category despite the move-in ready appearance.
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 = 7425, living area = 1285.
- Iconic Bay Views
The property offers breathtaking panoramic views of the Golden Gate Bridge and San Francisco Bay, providing a high-value aesthetic that is highly coveted in the El Cerrito Hills.
- Unique Outdoor Space
Situated on a generous 7,500 sq ft lot, the grounds feature a rare seasonal creek and natural rock seating, offering a tranquil and private retreat seldom found in suburban settings.
CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- Compact Interior Footprint
At 1,285 square feet for a three-bedroom configuration, the room scales may feel restrictive for families or buyers accustomed to more expansive modern layouts.
- Hillside Maintenance
The tiered lot and presence of a creek, while scenic, may require more intensive long-term landscaping maintenance and potential drainage oversight compared to flat parcels.
About 7717 Eureka Ave
