New is Good.

With the way inventory looks right now in San Carlos, it's becoming newsworthy when  any new listing comes on the market.   But regardless of what the market conditions happen to be, it's always worth noting when a newly-built home becomes available in San Carlos, because brand-new construction is a relative rarity here.   Since there's virtually no uncommitted land available on which to build new homes,  new homes usually appear where an older home once stood.   Such is the case with this nice home – or in this case, two homes.

2630 Howard Avenue.

The huge, older Spanish-style home that once stood on the 11,300 square foot lot at 2622 Howard Avenue has been transformed into two brand-new custom homes.  The first of these to come on the market is the one at 2630 Howard Avenue, which is being offered at $1,695,000 by Anna Wong of Alain Pinel Realtors.   This 4 bedroom/3 bathroom home has over 3,000 square feet of living space, and sits on a nicely landscaped 5,650 square foot lot.

Smart Design.

One of the great things about new construction is that it gives the architect and builder a clean slate to work with, instead of partial-remodels where they're constrained by the existing structure.  As such, you'd expect a very intelligent layout with a brand new home — and this home delivers.   The upstairs bedrooms are spacious and well appointed, with the gorgeous master suite located at the rear of the home for maximum quiet and privacy.    But the real showpiece of this home is the kitchen/family room area.  Since most people now tend to entertain in their kitchen and family room area, it's essential to many home buyers that these two rooms flow together in a “great room” configuration.   The great room in this home is one of the best that I've seen.
