Built in 1962, this property is aged but appears well-maintained and functional. While the kitchen benefits from newer appliances (oven, fridge) and a skylight, the cabinets, countertops, and flooring are significantly dated. The bathroom is also very dated in its fixtures, vanity, and flooring. The overall aesthetic throughout the unit, including carpets and light fixtures, suggests that while it's clean and livable, it has not undergone a major renovation in decades and requires substantial aesthetic updates to meet current standards.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Extensive Community Amenities: Located within Leisure World, a senior community offering a vast array of amenities including a golf course, swimming pool, gym, multiple clubhouses with various activity rooms, and over 200 clubs, providing a rich and active lifestyle.
Prime Walkable Location: The unit boasts excellent walkability to Clubhouses 3 & 4, the library, credit union, and various art and craft facilities, enhancing convenience for residents.
Updated Kitchen Features: The kitchen includes desirable updates such as an operable skylight, dishwasher, newer oven, and newer refrigerator, offering modern functionality.
Indoor/Outdoor Living: A sliding glass door from the bedroom provides direct access to a patio, promoting a seamless indoor/outdoor living experience.
Gated Senior Community: As a security-guard-gated senior community, it offers enhanced safety, peace of mind, and a tailored environment for its residents.

Cons

Compact Living Space: With only 600 square feet, the 1 bedroom, 1 bath unit offers limited living space, which may not suit all buyers' needs.
Stock Cooperative Ownership: The property is a Stock Cooperative, a less common ownership type that can present unique financing challenges and may not appeal to buyers accustomed to traditional real estate.
High Monthly Association Fee: A monthly association fee of $544.34 is substantial for a 600 sqft unit, adding a significant recurring cost to ownership, even with the extensive amenities provided.
