Chinaberry shop--214 Chinaberry Lane, Alameda, CA

| | Comments (0)
Today's craigslist post is a townhouse in an area of 94502 I have never heard of, "Baywood Village," but then I try not to spend too much time over there. The specs:

3 bedrooms, 2 1/2 bathrooms, 1,725 sqft, MLS(r) #40373871, $565,000

This spacious three bedroom, two and a half townhome is located in the Harbor Bay subdivision of Baywood Village. The living room and master suite are large with beamed ceilings and plenty of light coming through the high windows. The kitchen has a breakfast bar with an adjoining family room. There are three outdoor patios to be able to enjoy the greenbelt-like grounds. Check out the walking path along the lagoon. Close to shopping and restaurants with a community swimming pool, this is a very desirable home priced to sell.

I don't know about "priced to sell"--$328 / sqft for a condo that probably comes with hefty HOA dues (not mentioned in the post) is a bit steep. That said, it's almost back to its 2003 price judging by its sale history:

Last sale and tax info

Sold 08/20/2003: $512,000
2007 Property Tax: $6,832
In fact, it's another one of those listings where the agent's extensive, professional comparative market analysis  curiously came out to the previous price + 6% agent commission + basic maintenance costs over 5 years, almost exactly. Funny how those CMAs work out.
