Highlights and Lowlights of Today’s Sunnyvale Real Estate Broker’s Tour
It was such a beautiful morning that I decided to go on the Sunnyvale Broker’s tour on my mountain bike. You should have seen some of the reactions of my fellow Realtor’s. It was as if they had never seen someone on a bike before. Anyway, outside of making one wrong turn, it was a great morning combining exercise and work.
The first home I saw was 1582 Belleville Way, listed by Sharon Arnold of Coldwell Banker. This was a beautifully remodeled 3 bedroom 2 bath home on a double lot just a half block from West Valley Elementary school. It is listed at $1,198,800. Unfortunately, the home backs up to highway 85, so it will be interesting to see where this one ends up.
1321 Pauline Drive is listed by Dave Clark of Coldwell Banker. Unfortunately, this 3 bedroom 1 bath home didn’t show well because it is tenant occupied and very cluttered. Priced at $1,150,000, the home has a nice floor-plan with some remodeling and a large yard with room to expand. It’s advantage is also a drawback – schools. Stocklmeir Elementary and Cupertino Middle School are outstanding schools, but Fremont High is not.
1031 Pilinut Court is listed by Mei Chan of Intero Real Estate Services. This 4 bedroom 2 bath home has a great location and is nicely remodeled. Priced at $1,098,000, I think it should sell right away. It is my pick as the best home on tour today.
880 Mockingbird Lane is listed by the Blair Team, Keller Williams. I did not like the house or it’s price ($1,280,000). It is my pick as the worst home on tour today.
1145 S. Bernardo Avenue is listed by Don and Sally of Alain Pinel (sorry, no web link). The house has a good floor-plan, is a little dark and smells like the Great Dane dog (especially the master bedroom). It is listed at $988,888.
1141 Rockefeller Drive is listed by Nil Erdal of Coldwell Banker. I really liked what they did with this Ditz-Crane home. However, the interior colors may be too specific for a buyer and the living room walls will need to be repainted because of their integration with the wall art (you have to see it to understand). Still, it is a very nice (artsy) home with good schools. It is listed at $1,318,000., which might be a little aggressive.
