Condition Rating
Fair
Built in 1962, the property is explicitly described as 'original' and 'nothing fancy,' which is evident in the images. The kitchen features very dated appliances (likely original 1960s oven and cooktop), dark wood cabinets, laminate countertops, and old patterned flooring. The bathroom also appears original with dated fixtures and finishes. While dual-pane windows and skylights are noted updates, the core living spaces, especially the kitchen and bathroom, are significantly outdated and require substantial cosmetic renovation to meet current standards. The property is clean and maintained, but its age and lack of major renovations place it firmly in the 'fair' category, needing significant updates rather than minor repairs.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Comprehensive Senior Community Amenities: The property is located within Leisure World, a highly amenitized senior community offering an unparalleled range of recreational, social, and health-related facilities including golf, pools, gym, clubs, and more, significantly enhancing lifestyle and value.
Secure Gated Community: As part of a security-guard-gated community, residents benefit from enhanced safety, peace of mind, and a well-maintained environment.
Energy-Efficient Upgrades: The installation of dual-pane windows throughout the unit is a significant upgrade, improving insulation, reducing energy costs, and enhancing comfort.
Enhanced Natural Light & Outdoor Living: Multiple skylights in the bath, kitchen, and on the patio, along with a private wrap-around patio, provide abundant natural light and desirable outdoor space.
Strategic Location & Relative Affordability: Situated in the desirable city of Seal Beach, this property offers a comparatively accessible price point for entry into a highly amenitized community, especially given the local market.
Cons
Original Condition Requiring Renovation: The property explicitly retains its 1962 original interior, indicating a need for substantial modernization and investment to meet contemporary aesthetic and functional standards.
High Monthly Association Fees: The $558.52 monthly association fee is substantial and must be carefully considered as part of the total cost of ownership, despite covering extensive community amenities.
Stock Cooperative Ownership Structure: The property's 'Stock Cooperative' sub-type represents a less common ownership structure, which can potentially impact financing options, resale processes, and may require specific buyer understanding.
