Condition Rating
Fair
The property, built in 1978, is over 45 years old. While the description notes it's an 'upgraded unit' with 'newly interior paint' and 'no more popcorn ceiling,' suggesting recent cosmetic improvements, the images reveal a mix of updated and dated features. The bathroom has a newer vanity, sink, and mirror, but retains an older light fixture and a standard fiberglass tub/shower combo. Flooring in the main living areas is an older style tile, and bedrooms feature laminate flooring that appears somewhat dated. A wall-mounted AC unit is visible, indicating an older cooling system rather than modern central air. Crucially, no images of the kitchen were provided, which is a key area for condition assessment. Overall, the property is clean and functional, making it 'move-in ready' as described, but it clearly shows its age through various components and would benefit from further updates to achieve a more contemporary look and feel, aligning with the 'fair' condition criteria.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Prime Location: Strategically located near elementary, middle schools, and Miramar College, offering convenience for families and students. Easy access to Interstate 15 enhances commuting.
Community Amenities: Residents benefit from access to a pool, clubhouse, and tennis court, providing recreational opportunities and enhancing lifestyle.
Move-in Ready Condition: The unit is described as 'move-in condition' with newly interior paint and no popcorn ceilings, indicating recent upgrades and minimal immediate investment for buyers.
Upgraded Corner Unit: Being a 'downstairs corner upgraded unit' suggests potential for more natural light, privacy, and modern finishes compared to interior units.
Dedicated Parking: The inclusion of two dedicated parking spaces is a significant advantage for a condominium unit, especially in a dense urban area like San Diego.
Cons
MLS Listing Discrepancy: Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 913, other record living area = 686. Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 2, other record bedroom count = 1.
Recently Sold Property: The property was recently sold within the past year on 2024-12-10. The sold price is $406,000.00.
High Monthly HOA Fees: The association fee of $485.00 per month is substantial and adds a significant recurring cost to homeownership, which may impact affordability for some buyers.
Older Building Age: Built in 1978, the property is over 45 years old. While the unit is upgraded, the overall building infrastructure may require more maintenance or potential special assessments in the future.
Compact Living Space: With 913 square feet for a 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom unit, the living space is relatively compact, which might not appeal to buyers seeking more expansive living areas or those with larger households.
