Condition Rating
Excellent
This property, built in 1996, has undergone a significant and recent renovation, particularly in the key areas of the kitchen and bathrooms. The kitchen features newly installed SPC flooring, modern light gray shaker-style cabinets, white quartz countertops, white subway tile backsplash, and new stainless steel Samsung appliances (range, microwave, refrigerator), along with a modern black pull-down faucet. The bathrooms also showcase recent updates with matching shaker vanities, white solid surface countertops, modern black fixtures, and subway tile surrounds in the showers. The overall aesthetic is contemporary and fresh, with light gray paint throughout, recessed lighting, and modern light fixtures. The description explicitly mentions 'newly SPC floor' in the kitchen, strongly indicating a very recent update. Based on the extensive and high-quality renovations, especially in the kitchen and bathrooms, which appear to have been completed within the last 5 years, the property meets the criteria for an 'Excellent' condition score, despite its original build year.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Prime Downtown Location: Unbeatable walkability to San Jose State University, MLK Library, SAP Center, San Pedro Square, and the SoFA Arts District, offering a vibrant urban lifestyle with diverse dining, entertainment, and effortless commuting via Light Rail, Highways, and SJC airport.
Exceptional Building Amenities: The building provides comprehensive perks including a gym, saunas, hot tub, pool, package lockbox, community room, and onsite management services, significantly enhancing resident convenience and quality of life.
Desirable End-Unit Layout: This rare end-unit offers superior privacy and quiet, abundant natural light from its east-west orientation, and features two spacious master suites with walk-in closets and full bathrooms.
Modern Interior Features & Views: Highlights include a big living room with dramatic floor-to-ceiling windows offering mountain views, customized window shutters for warmth and brightness, and a newly installed SPC floor in the kitchen.
Convenient Practical Additions: Includes a private balcony, two dedicated parking spaces conveniently located near the elevator, and a separate locked storage unit, adding significant value and ease of living.

Cons

High Association Fee: The substantial monthly association fee of $1,110 could be a significant ongoing financial burden and a deterrent for potential buyers.
Potential for Dated Systems/Finishes: While some updates are mentioned (kitchen floor), the 1996 build year suggests other areas or major systems might be original and could require future investment, as no comprehensive renovation details are provided.
Urban Environment Drawbacks: Despite being in a gated community, a downtown location inherently comes with potential for increased noise levels and less personal green space compared to suburban alternatives.
