Condition Rating
Fair
Built in 1974, this condo shows signs of being well-maintained but is significantly dated in key areas. The kitchen features white tiled countertops and backsplash, older white cabinets with black knobs, and functional but not modern black appliances, suggesting renovations from 15-30 years ago. The bathroom also presents an outdated vanity with a speckled countertop and basic fixtures. While some areas like the living room and bedrooms have newer-looking laminate flooring or clean carpets, and plantation shutters are a nice touch, the overall aesthetic, including the hallway's textured wallpaper and older light fixtures, indicates a need for substantial cosmetic updates to meet current buyer expectations and modern styles. It is functional and livable but requires significant investment to modernize.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Premium Location: Strategically located 'South of the Boulevard' in Sherman Oaks, offering immediate walkability to the vibrant shops, dining, and entertainment of Ventura Boulevard.
Exceptional Building Amenities: The building provides resort-style amenities including a sparkling pool, tranquil spa, and a fitness center, enhancing the lifestyle appeal and resident experience.
Significant Price Improvement: A recent 'HUGE PRICE IMPROVEMENT' from $699,900 to $649,900 makes the property highly competitive and attractive to potential buyers.
Spacious & Well-Lit Interior: The 1261 sqft 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom residence is described as 'sun-drenched' and features 'abundant storage,' providing a comfortable and functional living space.
Desirable Condo Configuration: The 2-bed, 2-bath layout is a highly sought-after configuration, appealing to a broad range of buyers including small families, couples, or individuals seeking extra space.
Cons
High Monthly Association Fee: The $750.0 monthly association fee is substantial and could be a significant ongoing cost, impacting affordability for some buyers.
Building Age: Built in 1974, the building is nearly 50 years old, which may suggest potential for aging infrastructure, higher maintenance costs, or future special assessments.
Standard View: The property offers a 'Neighborhood' view, which, while pleasant, is not a premium feature like city lights or panoramic vistas that could command a higher value.
