What’s New in Sunnyvale?
Sunnyvale has two brand new listings - one is a fixer-upper without a kitchen (details!) that can be gutted and turned into something nice. Located at 302 W EAGLEWOOD Ave Sunnyvale, CA 94085, the selling price is $479,000. It does have 3 beds and 1 1/2 baths, and you could bring your camp stove until the kitchen was restored to usefulness. It is located off Borregas and Duane, which is a well-established neighborhood with easy 101 access if you are a commuter.
It does appear to be an Eichler - and the outside looks like it needs some work. The listing says that it is sold strictly as is. But if you are looking for a flipper at a good price, it is hard to find anything in Sunnyvale for less than $700K, even in this market.
The second new listing is located at 821 Goldenrod Ct, Sunnyvale, CA 94086, and is a beautiful 5 bedroom two-story with 3 full baths and 2231 square feet of living space. Located in a nicer neighborhood off Gail Avenue, the price of $1,138,888 reflects its location and is more typical of a Sunnyvale home.
Goldenrod Court is a cul-de-sac, and this home sits at the end - giving it a nice triangle-shaped 8K plus square foot lot. The kitchen appears to be newly remodeled, with gleaming stainless steel appliances and new cabinetry. The only thing this home is missing is a swimming pool!
Other comparable properties in Sunnyvale not-so-new on the market include:
1650 Meadowlark Lane - 4 beds, 2 1/2 baths for $1,099,999
850 San Mateo Court - 5 beds, 2 baths for $679,000 but located in the less prestigious Lakewood Villages area near highway 237
1205 Heatherstone Way - 4 beds, 2 baths for $928,000 and located in the nice Cherry Chase neighborhood and zoned for Homestead High.

Uh, I hate to be anal, but it’s hard to find something in *south* Sunnyvale (Cupertino school districts) for that price. You have a ton of choices in north Sunnyvale (not so great schools) under $700K.
