Condition Rating
Fair
Built in 1993, this property is 31 years old. While it features recent updates like new paint, new upstairs flooring, and a beautifully remodeled ensuite bathroom, the kitchen is significantly dated with tiled countertops, older white appliances, and fluorescent lighting. The downstairs tile flooring and the second full bathroom also show outdated styles. These key areas would require substantial updates to meet current quality standards, placing the overall condition in the 'Fair' category despite the excellent improvements in specific parts of the home.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Extensive Recent Renovations: The property boasts significant recent upgrades including new paint throughout, updated kitchen cabinets, new upstairs flooring, and a custom remodeled ensuite bathroom, offering a move-in ready experience.
Private Outdoor Oasis: Features a very private backyard with a custom gazebo and new ceiling fan, providing an ideal space for relaxation and entertaining.
Desirable & Well-Managed Complex: Located in a well-maintained complex with low HOA fees and a reputation for units being 'hard to find,' indicating strong demand and community value.
Exceptional Commuter-Friendly Location: Offers highly convenient access to major freeways (905, 805, 5), schools, shopping, and transportation, enhancing daily convenience.
Ample Parking Availability: Provides two assigned parking spaces and abundant guest parking, a valuable asset in a townhome community.
Cons
Potential Noise from Proximity to Playground: The home's direct orientation towards a playground may result in increased noise levels during peak usage times.
Lack of Central Air Conditioning: While ceiling fans are present, the absence of central air conditioning could be a significant drawback during San Diego's warmer months.
Limited Mention of Community Amenities: The description does not highlight common townhome community amenities such as a pool, gym, or clubhouse, which some buyers might expect.
