Originally 3BR/1BA, a large family/great room was added, and the garage has been converted to a 4th bedroom and bath with a separate entry. Most windows, roof, and drain line have been replaced (dates unknown) but there is significant deferred maintenance. Close to Stanford and Midtown Shopping Centers, parks, restaurants, library, and centrally located to numerous electronic companies, major thoroughfares, Caltrain and downtown. Rare opportunity in this great location. (Note, lot size varies depending on source. Buyer to confirm actual lot size.)
