Condition Rating
Fair
Built in 1995, this property has received recent cosmetic updates including new carpet, paint, blinds, and a new refrigerator, making it clean and move-in ready. However, the kitchen features dated wood cabinets and countertops, and the bathroom exhibits an older style with original-looking vanity, light fixtures, and tile. The cooling system is a wall-mounted AC unit, not central air. While functional and well-maintained, the core components and styles of the kitchen and bathrooms are outdated, suggesting minor updates would be desired for a modern aesthetic.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Move-in Ready Condition: Recently refreshed with new carpet, paint, blinds, and a new refrigerator, offering a clean and updated aesthetic for immediate occupancy.
Gated Community Amenities: Located within a gated community featuring a pool and lush landscaping, enhancing security and lifestyle appeal.
Convenient Location: Ideally situated near freeways and shopping, providing easy access to essential amenities and transportation.
Exclusive Outdoor Space & Parking: Includes an exclusive-use patio and a dedicated parking spot, adding valuable private outdoor space and convenience.
Recent Price Reduction: A significant price drop from the original listing price presents a more attractive and competitive investment opportunity.
Cons
High Monthly Association Fee: The $423.0 monthly association fee represents a substantial ongoing cost for homeowners.
Limited Square Footage: At 880 sqft, the unit offers relatively compact living space for a 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom configuration, which may not suit all buyers.
Upstairs Unit Accessibility: As an upstairs unit, it may present accessibility challenges or be less desirable for buyers preferring ground-floor living.
