The listing's square footage against the county assessor's record and the permits on file.
The listing and the county record agree within 10%.
What can explain a difference
- Space built without a permit.
- Permitted work the assessor has not recorded yet.
- An ADU, a finished basement or a converted garage counted in one figure and not the other.
- Different measuring. Listing agents and the assessor often measure the same house differently.

High asking price relative to the average neighborhood ARV leaves little room for a full teardown. The active landslide risk further dampens speculative new construction viability on this site.

Parcel & Zoning Info
ADU Potential
Flag / irregular · ~249 ft frontage × 251 ft deep, a tucked-away rear unit is very private; access is typically via the pole driveway.
Screening heuristic based on lot size, existing coverage, lot orientation, and hazard overlays. CA ADU law is ministerial statewide; verify max size, setbacks, and JADU owner-occupancy with the local planning dept.
Seller Motivation
Inferred from days on market and listing-description language (e.g. "as-is", "estate sale", "motivated seller"). A screening heuristic for likely negotiability, not a statement about the seller's circumstances.
Redevelopment Potential
Meaningful unused floor-area headroom under current zoning, room to add square footage. Zoning allows roughly 7,566 sqft of gross floor area on this lot.
Screening estimate comparing existing living area to the city's single-family floor-area limit. FAR figure is a discretionary-review trigger, not a hard cap. Treat as approximate. Source: Town of Hillsborough Development Standards (rev. July 2026), Minimum and Maximum House Size; Muni Code Title 17 (as of 2026-09-03). Verify FAR, coverage, setbacks, and height with the local planning dept.

Proforma ROI Calculator
Back-of-the-napkin deal analysis across development strategies.
Zoning allows roughly 7,566 sqft on this lot, and the default builds to that envelope. The FAR figure is a discretionary-review trigger, not a hard cap.
Median of 12 recent single-family sales in Hillsborough (94010): $1,286/sqft, plus 5% because new houses sold at a median 1.07x their comps across 239 real rebuilds. Sized within 25% of the 7,600 sqft build, because smaller houses sell for more per foot and pricing a rebuild off them overstates resale.
Commission, transfer tax and closing. Deducted from resale before profit, so the ROI below is net of the exit rather than gross.
Interest on the purchase price for the whole project plus half the build budget, since construction draws ramp up. The default is 7% over 33 months, the median purchase-to-sale time of 239 real Peninsula and South Bay rebuilds. Set the rate to 0 for a cash purchase, or use your own lender's terms.
