Pleasant Hill, California 94523
This Value-Add Studio Condominium is listed at $298,000, offering a strategic entry point into the Shadowood community. While the $272,159 Fair Market Value and Poor Condition Rating reflect the need for comprehensive interior updates, the unit’s high vaulted ceilings and in-unit laundry hookups provide significant renovation upside. Proximity to Diablo Valley College and top-rated schools like College Park High ensures consistent rental interest. This asset is a prime acquisition for Buy-and-Hold Investors or first-time buyers looking to build equity through a custom renovation in a high-demand suburban corridor.

Property is extensive renovation needed.
Built in 1981 (43 years old) with no evidence of recent renovations. The interior features highly dated elements such as louvered closet doors, mirrored sliders, and original-style vinyl flooring in the bathroom. Based on the criteria for age (>30 years) and the need for significant updates to the kitchen, bath, and likely systems, it is rated poor.
The property is ideally situated near Diablo Valley College, Sun Valley Mall, and major transit corridors (Highways 680 and 4), making it a prime location for students, commuters, and renters.
High vaulted ceilings and a private balcony significantly enhance the studio's sense of space and light, while the inclusion of in-unit laundry hookups provides a rare and highly desirable convenience for this unit type.
The Shadowood community offers robust recreational facilities, including a pool, tennis, and pickleball courts, complemented by a park directly across the street and an HOA fee that includes select utilities.
With only 537 square feet of living space and no separate bedroom, the property’s utility is limited to single occupants or investors, potentially narrowing the pool of future buyers.
A history of multiple price reductions from the original $315,000 list price suggests the property has struggled to gain traction at higher price points in the current market environment.
Second-story studio condominium with a private balcony and high vaulted ceilings that create an open, airy feel. The functional layout offers comfortable living space with abundant natural light and added privacy from the upper-level location. A dedicated laundry closet includes in-unit washer and dryer hookups for everyday convenience. Kitchen appliances are included with the property. The community is calm, quiet, and well maintained, featuring mature landscaping throughout the complex and very nice parking lot with guest parking available. HOA amenities include a community swimming pool, with tennis and pickleball courts. A neighborhood park and shaded children’s playground are directly across the street from the community entrance. Conveniently located in Pleasant Hill near shopping, dining, and daily essentials, including Sun Valley Mall. Easy access to Highways 680 and 4 makes commuting simple, while Diablo Valley College is just minutes away. The surrounding suburban neighborhoods reflect strong pride of ownership and a welcoming residential atmosphere. HOA dues include select utilities and contribute to the care of the grounds and lush greenery that define the community. An excellent opportunity for low-maintenance living in a desirable and peaceful area.
