Condition Rating
Good
This condominium, built in 2006, is in excellent, move-in ready condition. The description highlights recent updates including newer luxury vinyl flooring, new designer white paint, and professionally refurbished grout in the bathrooms and kitchen. The kitchen features high-end appliances like a SubZero Refrigerator, Bosch dishwasher, stone counters, and a gas range, all appearing modern and well-maintained in the images. Bathrooms also show modern fixtures and clean tiling. While the property is 18 years old, the significant cosmetic updates and 'like-new' feel, combined with well-maintained systems, align perfectly with the 'Good' rating criteria. It falls short of 'Excellent' due to its age exceeding 10 years and the updates being a refresh rather than a full, extensive renovation within the last 5 years, and the noted lack of central air conditioning.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Great Schools: High School: Las Lomas High School (9/10).
Prime Downtown Location: Situated in the heart of downtown Walnut Creek, offering unparalleled walkability to excellent restaurants, eclectic shops, and the Regional Center for the Arts.
Extensive Luxury Community Amenities: Residents benefit from exceptional complex amenities including a large lap pool, spa, state-of-the-art gym, outdoor BBQ area, and a multi-purpose room.
Modern & Upgraded Interiors: The unit boasts a 'like-new' condition with recent upgrades such as newer luxury vinyl flooring, new designer white paint, professionally refurbished grout, and an open layout. The kitchen features high-end appliances like a SubZero Refrigerator, Bosch dishwasher, stone counters, and a gas range.
Private Outdoor Space & Pet-Friendly Access: Features a fenced, oversized patio facing Trinity Avenue and a private back entrance, making it ideal for dog owners and offering convenient outdoor access without traversing the building.
Abundant Natural Light: As a bright, South-facing unit, the condominium is flooded with natural light, enhancing its modern vibe and overall appeal.

Cons

High HOA Dues: The monthly association fee of $947.0 is substantial and adds significantly to the overall cost of ownership, which could be a deterrent for some buyers.
Street-Facing Patio & Potential Noise: While offering private outdoor space, the oversized patio faces Trinity Avenue, potentially exposing residents to street noise and reducing privacy compared to a courtyard-facing or higher-floor unit.
Lack of Central Air Conditioning: The property description does not mention a cooling system, which could be a significant drawback during Walnut Creek's often hot summer months.
