Hudson Street is Hopping!
I’m wondering if there’s some kind of construction that is scheduled to happen in the near future along Hudson Street in Redwood City. I drove down this long road (which runs the width of the city from Whipple Avenue to Woodside Road) and kept seeing “For Sale” signs everywhere. I know it’s the middle of the summer selling season and all but there are 10 homes for sale, plus several which had a SOLD sign on them, and a little investigative work shows 2 more that sold recently. That is quite a bit for a street that is only about 16 blocks long. Not sure what gives, but maybe people are just tired of living along a well-traveled corridor. Either way, it might make for a fair priced home if you’re in the market.
You sure have your choice of price ($225,000 to $969,000), price per sf ($266 to $625), and size (470 sf to 2900 sf). You can buy a single family home or one of the duplexes. You also have the choice of a remodeled move-in condition home or a fixer-upper. All in all, a pretty good selection. Here’s what is available at this time:
472 Hudson, 5/3, 2900 sf, $900,000 ($310/sf) DOM: 77 (photo above)
This is a 3-unit PINK fixer-upper. Front is 2/3 BR, plus a rear unit with 2 BR apartment and studio apartment. Across from Redeemer Lutheran Church and Elementary School.
