More Insights
Built in 1926 (100 years old).
Condition: Despite being built in 1926, this property has undergone a 'completely transformed' and 'meticulously reimagined' renovation, as stated in the description. The images confirm a high-end, contemporary renovation throughout. The kitchen features professional-grade appliances (Wolf range, Sub Zero refrigerator), premium stone surfaces, and modern cabinetry. Bathrooms are equally impressive with new vanities, modern fixtures, subway tiling, and glass enclosures. All visible components, including flooring (hardwood), lighting (recessed and stylish fixtures), and overall finishes, appear new or virtually new, meeting current quality standards with no deferred maintenance. The presence of a Tesla charger also suggests updated electrical infrastructure. This property aligns perfectly with the 'Excellent' criteria for a recently and extensively renovated home.

Prime Location & Neighborhood: Positioned in the prestigious Crocker Highlands enclave, this home is on a tree-lined one-way street, directly across from tranquil Plum Patch Park, and minutes from top-rated Crocker Highlands Elementary and the vibrant Lakeshore district, offering an unrivaled urban-suburban balance.
Meticulously Reimagined & Modern Design: A meticulously reimagined Tudor estate, completely transformed with a contemporary open floor plan that seamlessly blends classic architectural heritage with high-concept modern luxury and a sleek aesthetic throughout.
Gourmet Professional-Grade Kitchen: The home features a professional-grade kitchen as its anchor, boasting premium stone surfaces, a massive island, and high-performance appliances including a double Wolf range and Sub Zero refrigerator.
Luxurious Primary Suite & Outdoor Amenities: The primary suite is a sanctuary of light with an exquisite private terrace offering curated views. The professionally landscaped, multi-level grounds provide a private sanctuary, including a secluded area for al fresco dining with a built-in BBQ.
Desirable Views: The property offers desirable 'peekaboo' views of the Oakland & SF skylines from the primary suite terrace, complemented by general city lights, park/greenbelt, and hills views.
Cons
Property Age & Potential for Older Systems: Despite extensive modern renovations, the property's original build year of 1926 suggests that some underlying infrastructure (e.g., plumbing, electrical, foundation) may still be older or require ongoing maintenance not explicitly covered by the aesthetic updates.
Specific 'Peekaboo' View Limitation: While views are present, the description specifically highlights 'curated peekaboo views' from the primary suite terrace, implying that these views may not be expansive or fully unobstructed, which could be a consideration for buyers seeking grand panoramic vistas.
Ongoing Association Fee: The property incurs an association fee of $326.0, which represents an additional recurring cost that some buyers might prefer to avoid for a single-family residence, and the specific benefits covered by this fee are not detailed.
