Condition Rating
Good
Built in 1971, this condo has undergone significant and recent interior renovations, including a modern kitchen with white shaker cabinets, new countertops, and a contemporary bathroom with a walk-in shower. The property also features new laminate flooring, fresh paint, double-paned windows, and a gas fireplace insert, making it move-in ready. While the interior is largely updated and modern, the original structure's age (over 50 years) and some minor details like the black dishwasher (instead of stainless steel) and visible cracks in the exterior driveway prevent it from achieving an 'Excellent' rating, which typically implies a very recent and comprehensive renovation or new construction. The updates align well with the 'Good' criteria of being extensively renovated within the last 5-15 years, with well-maintained systems and minimal wear and tear.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Exceptional Coastal Location: Direct walking access to Capitola Village, beaches, and surf, placing it in a highly desirable lifestyle destination with nearby parks.
Extensive Modern Upgrades: Features recent renovations including double-paned windows, laminate flooring, updated bathroom, fresh paint, and a gas fireplace, making it move-in ready.
Robust Community Amenities: Access to a fenced community pool, picnic area, and well-maintained grounds within the Capitola Shores complex enhances lifestyle.
Unbeatable Local Convenience: Proximity to diverse shops, restaurants, multiple grocery stores (Whole Foods, New Leaf Market), and easy freeway access for commuters.
Accessible Single-Level Living: As a ground floor unit, it offers ease of access and eliminates stairs, appealing to a broad demographic.

Cons

High Monthly Association Fee: The $689 monthly HOA fee is significant and will add considerably to the overall cost of ownership.
Limited Living Space: At 800 sqft, the unit offers relatively compact living quarters, which may feel restrictive for some buyers, especially those needing more room.
Shared Parking Arrangement: The 'shared 1 car garage' could present inconveniences or limitations compared to a private, dedicated parking solution.
