Condition Rating
Good
Built in 1973, this property has undergone significant updates, particularly in the kitchen, which features stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and updated cabinetry, likely within the last 10-15 years. Hardwood flooring throughout the main living areas and bedrooms also contributes to a well-maintained and move-in ready condition. While the dining area light fixture appears somewhat dated and no bathroom images are provided, the visible renovations align with a property extensively updated within the last 5-15 years, making it functional and appealing without immediate renovation needs.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Prime Coastal Location: Situated in the serene Seascape community of Aptos, offering picturesque views, close proximity to pet-friendly beaches, and sidewalks for relaxing strolls.
Excellent Community Amenities & Convenience: Features a pool just a 2-minute walk away and provides convenient access to nearby shopping, restaurants, and various local amenities.
Spacious 3-Bedroom Layout: A rare find for a condominium, offering 3 bedrooms within a spacious open floor plan, providing ample natural light and flexibility for residents.
Updated Interior Features: Boasts a modern kitchen with updated appliances, enhancing the home's contemporary appeal and move-in readiness.
Private Outdoor Space: Includes a private patio, ideal for relaxation and enjoying the peaceful community surroundings.
Cons
Age of Building: Built in 1973, the property is over 50 years old, which may raise concerns about the condition of original building systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical, roof) and potential for future maintenance or special assessments, despite interior updates.
High Monthly Association Fee: A monthly association fee of $483.0 is a significant recurring cost that adds substantially to the overall housing expenses.
Condominium Living Restrictions: As a condominium, owners are subject to Homeowners Association (HOA) rules and regulations, which can limit personal modifications, pet policies, and potentially rental options, impacting individual autonomy.
