Condition Rating
Good
Despite being built in 1981, this condo has undergone significant recent updates, including newer windows, flooring (tile mentioned, but images show LVP/laminate), a new refrigerator, newer washer/dryer, and a newer (2-year-old) wall air conditioning unit. The kitchen features granite countertops and stainless steel appliances (though the electric stove appears to be an older coil-top style), and the bathroom has updated fixtures and tile. The living areas are clean, modern, and feature recessed lighting and ceiling fans. The property is move-in ready with no immediate renovations required, aligning with the 'Good' score criteria for properties extensively renovated within the last 5-15 years. The primary functional drawback is the wall air conditioning instead of central air, but it is a newer unit.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Extensive Recent Upgrades: The property features numerous recent upgrades including a new refrigerator, newer washer/dryer, newer tile, newer windows, newer wall air conditioning (2 years old), newer thermostat, and granite countertops, offering a modern and well-maintained interior.
Desirable Community & Amenities: Located in the well-regarded Benchmark Villas community, which includes a park, and situated in the desirable city of Lake Forest, enhancing lifestyle and appeal.
Ground Floor Accessibility & Convenience: As a ground-floor unit, it offers easy access without stairs, along with practical amenities like a storage shed on the patio and two dedicated parking permits.
HOA Benefits & Included Utilities: The HOA fee includes water, providing a valuable cost-saving benefit and simplifying utility management for residents.
Proximity to Highly-Rated Schools: The condo is located near well-rated elementary (La Madera, 7), middle (Serrano, 6), and high schools (El Toro, 7), making it attractive for families.
Cons
Wall Air Conditioning: Despite being newer, the reliance on wall air conditioning instead of central air can be less efficient, potentially noisier, and generally less desirable for many buyers, especially in warmer climates.
High Monthly HOA Fee: The $450.0 monthly association fee is relatively high for a condominium, adding a significant recurring cost to homeownership that could impact affordability.
Lack of Desirable View: The property explicitly states 'view: None,' which can be a drawback for buyers seeking scenic outlooks, enhanced privacy, or a premium condo experience.
