Condition Rating
Good
Despite being built in 1962, this property has undergone significant recent updates that elevate its condition. The description highlights 'brand-new AC' and 'new windows,' which are major system replacements ensuring functionality and efficiency. The 'newer kitchen countertop' and 'cut-down shower' indicate recent attention to the kitchen and bathroom, even if not a full, high-end renovation. The images show updated flooring (laminate/engineered wood) and a freshly painted interior, contributing to a move-in ready state. While the kitchen and bathroom may not be fully modernized in style, the critical functional components have been addressed, making it a well-maintained home with minimal immediate renovation needs.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Extensive Recent Updates: The unit boasts significant recent upgrades including a brand-new AC, new windows, newer kitchen countertop, cut-down shower, and fresh paint, minimizing immediate buyer expenses and enhancing modern comfort.
In-Unit Laundry: The inclusion of a washer/dryer within the unit offers exceptional convenience, a highly sought-after amenity not always found in cooperative or condo living.
Prime Community Location: Its convenient drive-up location near the front gate of Leisure World provides easy access and desirable proximity within the community.
Abundant Natural Light: Large skylights on the front and side patios, combined with an east-facing orientation, ensure the home is bright and filled with morning sunshine, creating a welcoming ambiance.
Private Storage: A dedicated private storage room offers valuable extra space for belongings, a practical and often appreciated feature.
Cons
High Monthly Association Fee: The substantial monthly association fee of $748.50 represents a significant ongoing cost that could impact affordability and narrow the pool of potential buyers.
Stock Cooperative Ownership: As a 'Stock Cooperative,' ownership involves shares in a corporation rather than direct real estate, which can complicate financing options and may not appeal to all buyers accustomed to traditional property deeds.
Compact Living Space: With 780 square feet, the 2-bedroom, 1-bath layout is relatively compact, which might be a limiting factor for buyers seeking more expansive living areas.
