Property is move-in ready.
The property is move-in ready and has been significantly updated despite its 1986 build date. The kitchen features high-end stainless steel appliances, including a professional Viking range and granite countertops. The interior is well-maintained with modern wood flooring, recessed lighting, and updated bathroom vanities. While the glass block shower and cabinet styles are slightly older, the overall quality and lack of deferred maintenance align with the 'good' condition category.
Situated in the heart of downtown San Jose, this property offers exceptional walkability to major tech employers like Adobe and Zoom, as well as premier entertainment at San Pedro Square and the SAP Center.
As a top-floor unit, the residence features soaring ceilings and expansive windows that provide abundant natural light and sunset views, complemented by a high-end kitchen equipped with a professional Viking range.
The 1,203-square-foot open-concept design with wood flooring and a seamless flow between living areas provides a sense of scale and luxury rarely found in standard urban condominiums.
The association fee of $904 per month is notably high, which significantly increases the monthly carrying costs and may impact the purchasing power of budget-conscious buyers.
The assigned public schools carry relatively low ratings (3 to 4 out of 10), which may limit the property's appeal to families and potentially affect long-term appreciation compared to other Silicon Valley neighborhoods.
