Condition Rating
Good

The property, built in 1971, has undergone significant recent updates, including newer laminate flooring throughout, new/newer stainless steel kitchen appliances (microwave, oven, refrigerator, dishwasher), and a newly built-in bedroom wardrobe. These updates make the unit move-in ready with no immediate renovations required. While the kitchen features dated tile countertops and the bathrooms, though clean and functional, have an older aesthetic, the overall condition is well-maintained with major systems and components being functional and updated enough to meet current living standards. It fits the 'Good' criteria of having some updated components without a full recent renovation, and being move-in ready.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Great Schools: Elementary School: Warner Avenue Elementary School (9/10).
Prime Location & Neighborhood Prestige: Situated in the highly desirable heart of Sherman Oaks, just one block south of Ventura Blvd, this unit is part of a luxurious building surrounded by multi-million dollar homes, offering unmatched urban convenience and easy access to upscale dining, shopping, and major freeways.
Resort-Style Building Amenities: The Sherman Villas complex provides an array of desirable amenities including a swimming pool, spa, fitness center, beautifully landscaped garden courtyard, gated entry, and secure underground parking, enhancing the living experience.
Spacious & Bright Interior with Versatile Sunroom: The unit boasts a bright and spacious open-concept living and dining area, complemented by a charming sunroom that offers abundant natural light and serves as an ideal space for a home office, reading nook, or relaxation.
Updated Interior Features: The condominium features a galley kitchen with stainless steel appliances (including a new microwave and newer oven, refrigerator, dishwasher), tile countertops, ample cabinetry, and newer laminate flooring throughout, providing a modern and well-maintained living space.
Convenient Two Full Bathrooms: Unusually for a 1-bedroom unit, this property includes two full bathrooms, with one en-suite to the generous bedroom and a second for guests, significantly enhancing comfort and functionality.

Cons

High Association Fees: The monthly association fee of $770.40 is substantial for a 1-bedroom unit, which could impact affordability and long-term ownership costs for potential buyers.
Building Age: Built in 1971, the building is over 50 years old. While described as well-maintained, older structures can sometimes incur higher maintenance costs or potential for future special assessments for major system upgrades or repairs.
Limited Bedroom Count: As a 1-bedroom unit, the property's appeal is limited to a specific demographic, primarily singles or couples, which may narrow the pool of potential buyers compared to units with more bedrooms.
