Best of Tour for May 6th, 2013 – Best Homes From Today’s Tour

Time permitting, we like to spotlight the best home from our weekly Broker tour day. One which we feel is exceptional in one way or another.

Sometimes it’s the amazing view, the fantastic kitchen or the stunning location or landscaping–and other times, it’s about the value.

Today’s Best of Tour in our opinion is the home at 31 Willow Glen Way in San Carlos courtesy REIGN Real Estate.

31 Willow Glen

It offers a great secluded west-side San Carlos location and the home has many opportunities for sweat equity. It’s ideal for somebody that wants to move in to a home today and add more value later my making this diamond in the rough a true gem.

If you can get this home anywhere near it’s listed price of $849,000 one should feel elated they got a great deal.

Best Home of the Week – 1-18-2011

Whenever a holiday falls on a Monday, many homes are not toured on our usual Tuesday tour day. Simply put they miss the tour sheet since the deadline is moved to the Friday preceding the holiday, instead of the usual Monday deadline.

So there weren’t a lot of homes to choose from but we did find this home in Redwood Shores which stood apart from the rest for the value it offers.

Belmont’s Best Deal of the Week—September 2nd 2008.

Belmont’s Best Deal of the Week—September 2nd 2008.

This home just popped out at us as being one of the best deals we’ve seen in awhile. I’m a little skeptical about the reported square footage but it’s still a good deal. Once in the home the upper level flows out to the rear yard and it’s all level–a real plus in the hills. There’s what is being called a permitted room and bath down in the garage making it a three bedroom if it’s really permitted. Anytime a room opens into a garage it’s not supposed to be a legal room (Uniform Building Code citing). It may have been permitted at one time, making it a legal non-conforming room. Oh and it had nice views too!
