Condition Rating
Fair
The property was built in 1961, making it over 60 years old. While the listing notes 'new paint' and 'new flooring' (visible as LVP in the living area and carpet in bedrooms), the kitchen and bathroom, which are key areas, show signs of being outdated. The kitchen features honey oak cabinets and dark granite-like countertops, likely updated 15-20 years ago, and a dated wood-paneled breakfast bar. Appliances are stainless steel and appear newer. The bathroom has a very dated vanity, mirror, and lighting fixture. Major components are functional, but the overall aesthetic in these critical areas is not contemporary and would require further updates for modern appeal.

Prime Location & Commuter Access: Situated in a popular Lakeshore Park area with immediate access to shopping (Marina Food Market, Safeway, Whole Foods) and major highways (101, 92) for convenient commuting.
Recent Interior Upgrades: Features new paint, new flooring, and an updated eat-in kitchen with a breakfast bar, offering a modern and move-in ready living space.
Comprehensive HOA Benefits: The HOA covers essential utilities including water, gas, and garbage, significantly reducing monthly household expenses for residents.
Abundant Community Amenities: Residents benefit from a community pool, clubhouse, fitness center, and proximity to waterways and local parks, enhancing lifestyle and recreational opportunities.
Dedicated Parking & Private Outdoor Space: Includes covered parking plus an additional reserved spot, along with a generous-sized backyard patio, providing valuable private outdoor and parking solutions.
Cons
MLS Listing Discrepancy: Lot size discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing lot size in square feet =550, other record lot size in square feet = 220318.
Limited Bathroom Count: The property offers only one bathroom for three bedrooms, which may present practical challenges for families or multiple occupants.
Building Age: Constructed in 1961, the property's age, despite recent cosmetic updates, could imply older underlying infrastructure or potential for future maintenance considerations.
Above Estimated Market Value: The current listing price is approximately 5% higher than the property's estimated market value, potentially impacting buyer perception and negotiation leverage.
