Valuable HOA Amenities & Inclusions: The HOA provides excellent value by covering water, sewer, and trash, and offering access to a pool, spa, and gated entry, enhancing security, recreation, and overall living convenience.
Private Outdoor Space & Storage: A private patio with direct greenbelt access offers desirable outdoor living, complemented by a fully drywalled garage providing valuable extra storage or flexible utility space.

Strategic Location: Conveniently located near Crafton Hills College, top-rated Redlands schools, and local shopping, the property offers strong appeal to students, faculty, families, and those seeking easy access to amenities.
Cons
Limited Living Space & Configuration: The unit's compact size at 716 sqft with only 1 bedroom and 1 bathroom significantly narrows the potential buyer pool, primarily appealing to singles or couples without children.
Ongoing HOA Fees: The $385 monthly HOA fee, while inclusive of some utilities and amenities, represents a substantial recurring cost that must be factored into the buyer's long-term budget and affordability.
Condominium Lifestyle Limitations: As a condominium, the property inherently involves shared walls, potential for noise from neighbors, and adherence to community rules and regulations, which may limit personal autonomy compared to a single-family home.
