Condition Rating
Excellent
Despite being built in 1960, this property has undergone an extensive and very recent renovation, bringing it to an 'excellent' condition. The description explicitly states 'fully renovated kitchen with quartz countertops and new stainless-steel appliances' and 'renovated baths,' which is clearly visible in the images. The kitchen features modern white shaker cabinets, black hardware, quartz countertops, and new LG stainless steel appliances. The bathrooms are also updated with contemporary vanities, fixtures, and finishes. New lighting, refinished flooring, fresh paint, energy-efficient dual-pane windows, and new doors/hardware throughout the home indicate a comprehensive update, meeting current quality standards with virtually new components.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Extensive Modern Renovations: The property boasts comprehensive updates including a fully renovated kitchen with quartz countertops and new stainless-steel appliances, renovated baths, new lighting, refinished flooring, fresh paint, energy-efficient dual-pane windows, and new doors/hardware, offering a move-in ready experience.
Panoramic Views: Enjoy captivating Golden Gate Bridge, city, and mountain views from bright bedrooms, significantly enhancing the property's appeal and value.
Versatile Bonus Space: A lower-level bonus room with a second bath provides flexible space for a home office, gym, or guest accommodations, adding significant functionality.
Prime Location & Accessibility: Situated in desirable St. Francis Heights, the home offers convenient access to major shopping centers (Ranch 99, Serramonte, Westlake), Daly City BART, and I-280, ensuring excellent connectivity and amenities.
Strong Investment Potential: The estimated property value is approximately 15% higher than the current list price, indicating a potentially undervalued asset and strong appreciation potential for buyers.
Cons
Compact Lot Size: The 3,400 sqft lot is relatively small for a single-family residence, offering limited outdoor space for extensive landscaping or recreational activities.
Modest Interior Square Footage: At 1,260 sqft, the interior living space, while efficiently designed with an open concept, may feel compact for some buyers, particularly those seeking larger room dimensions.
Age of Core Systems: Despite extensive cosmetic and some functional updates, the 1960 build year suggests that underlying core systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical beyond lighting, foundation) may still be original or require future maintenance/upgrades not explicitly covered in the recent renovations.
