Condition Rating
Fair

Built in 1968, this condo is well-maintained within a good complex, and a new electrical sub-panel was recently installed. However, the interior, especially the kitchen and bathrooms, is significantly dated. The kitchen features white tile countertops, backsplash, and floors, along with older white appliances and dated cabinets. Bathrooms also show dated vanities, fixtures, and tile. The parquet wood floors and bedroom carpets, while clean, contribute to an overall outdated aesthetic. The property is functional and livable but requires substantial cosmetic updates to meet modern standards, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria of being aged but maintained, with functional but outdated major components requiring minor updates or repairs.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Great Schools: Elementary School: Lowell Elementary School (9/10).
Exceptional Coastal Location: Situated just one block from the beach, offering immediate access to coastal living and proximity to vibrant local attractions including restaurants, shops, farmer's market, Retro Row, Belmont Shore, and Shoreline Village.
End Unit Advantages & Natural Light: As an end unit, it benefits from enhanced privacy, fewer shared walls, and an abundance of natural light through multiple windows and sliding glass doors.
Desirable Views: Features views of the mountains, the Long Beach Museum of Art, and a pleasant 'peek-a-boo' ocean view, adding to its appeal.
Robust Building Amenities & Maintenance: The complex provides a secured lobby, elevator access, secured subterranean parking with assigned storage, onsite laundry, and is well-maintained with a newer roof and earthquake insurance.
Spacious Layout & Pet-Friendly Policy: Offers a generous 1184 sqft with 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, including a spacious balcony, and benefits from a pet-friendly policy, appealing to a broad range of buyers.

Cons

Dated Interior Finishes: The kitchen features white tile countertops and matching tile floors, along with parquet wood floors and carpet in bedrooms, which may be considered dated and could necessitate renovation for modern tastes.
Significant Monthly HOA Fee: A monthly association fee of $500.00 represents a substantial recurring cost that potential buyers must factor into their budget.
Limited Ocean View: Despite its proximity to the beach, the property offers only a 'peek-a-boo' ocean view, which might not meet the expectations of buyers specifically seeking expansive ocean vistas.
