Condition Analysis
See Full ReportOVERALL CONDITION SCORE
Excellent
TeardownExcellent
Property is new construction or fully renovated.
Despite the 1963 build date, the home is in mint, move-in-ready condition following extensive remodeling. The kitchen features high-end Sub-Zero and KitchenAid appliances with granite counters, bathrooms have been fully updated with modern fixtures like heated towel racks, and the hardwood floors are newly refinished. The inclusion of air conditioning and a polished presentation indicates a recent renovation (<5 years for key finishes) with no deferred maintenance.
PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES
- Modernized Architectural Character
This mid-century modern home features high-end updates including a Sub-Zero refrigerator, remodeled bathrooms, and refinished hardwoods, offering a sophisticated, move-in-ready aesthetic.
- Versatile Floor Plan
The 2,200 sqft layout includes a dedicated office with 4th-bedroom potential and separate living and family rooms, perfectly catering to hybrid work and modern family needs.
- Seamless Indoor-Outdoor Flow
Multiple oversized sliding doors connect the interior living spaces to expansive decks and a lush lawn, creating an ideal environment for entertaining and enjoying the Peninsula climate.
CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- Market Momentum
A recent $150,000 price reduction after 21 days on the market suggests the initial list price was above market expectations, which may impact buyer perception of value.
- Lot Size Constraints
The 6,328 sqft lot is relatively standard for the neighborhood, which may feel restrictive to buyers seeking more expansive private grounds at this $2.6M price point.
