Condition Rating
Fair
The property was built in 1988, making it 36 years old. While the description mentions an 'updated kitchen with granite countertop' and the images show laminate and tile flooring, many elements still reflect its age. The kitchen features older-style light wood cabinets, a basic electric coil range, and a dated fluorescent light fixture, despite the granite countertops and newer stainless steel dishwasher/refrigerator. The bathroom is clean but clearly outdated with an older vanity, light fixture, and tile. The heating and cooling systems consist of baseboard heaters and a wall-mounted AC unit, which are not modern central systems. The property is well-maintained and move-in ready, but its overall style and major systems show signs of being outdated, requiring minor updates to meet current standards, aligning with a 'fair' condition.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Prime Location & Accessibility: The condo boasts a highly convenient location, offering easy access to San Jose downtown, major highways (680, 101, 280), diverse restaurants, shopping centers, employment hubs, and public transportation, appealing to commuters and urban dwellers.
Gated Community with Amenities: Located within a secure gated community that provides desirable amenities such as a community pool, gym, and shared laundry facilities, enhancing lifestyle and resident convenience.
Updated Interior Features: The unit features an updated kitchen with granite countertops and modern laminate and tile flooring throughout, presenting a move-in ready and aesthetically pleasing living space.
Assigned Covered Parking: The inclusion of one assigned covered parking spot is a significant advantage, offering convenience and protection for a vehicle, which is highly valued in urban settings.
End Unit with Private Outdoor Space: As a 1st-floor end unit, it likely offers more privacy and natural light. The private balcony with a storage closet provides valuable outdoor space and additional storage.
Cons
Compact Square Footage: With only 597 square feet, the unit is quite small, which may limit its appeal to buyers seeking more spacious living areas or those with plans for family expansion.
High Monthly Association Fees: The $446.0 monthly association fee is substantial for a one-bedroom condo, adding a significant recurring cost to homeownership and potentially impacting affordability.
Single Bedroom Configuration: Being a one-bedroom unit restricts its market to primarily single individuals, couples, or investors, potentially narrowing the pool of prospective buyers compared to properties with more bedrooms.
