Built in 1994, this property is 30 years old. While the description mentions it's 'beautifully updated,' the images reveal a mix of partial updates and original features. The kitchen has updated two-tone cabinets and stainless steel appliances, but the fluorescent ceiling light and non-stone countertops appear dated. The bathrooms are clean and functional but clearly feature original or older-style vanities, large frameless mirrors, and strip lighting typical of 1990s construction. Flooring includes clean carpet and some wood/laminate, but not a consistent modern hard surface throughout. The property is well-maintained and move-in ready, but requires minor cosmetic updates, particularly in the bathrooms and some light fixtures, to align with current styles and quality standards.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Prime Location & Accessibility: The property boasts immediate access to BART, major freeways, Bay Club, and the premier shopping and dining destinations of Downtown Walnut Creek, along with proximity to Walden Park and the Iron Horse Trail.
Top-Rated School Districts: Located within the highly desirable Walnut Creek / Acalanes school districts, with nearby schools like Las Lomas High School (9/10 rating) and Walnut Creek Intermediate (7/10 rating).
Community Amenities & Security: Part of a secure, gated community, residents benefit from amenities such as a sparkling pool and a detached garage, enhancing lifestyle and convenience.
Updated Interior & Design: The residence is beautifully updated with a thoughtfully designed floor plan, soaring ceilings, abundant natural light, in-unit laundry, and a cozy fireplace, offering modern comfort.
Private Outdoor Spaces: Features two private balconies, including one off the primary suite and another off the family room, perfect for outdoor dining, grilling, or quiet relaxation with views of the Iron Horse Trail.

Cons

High Monthly Association Fees: The $725.0 monthly association fee is a significant recurring cost that adds substantially to the overall housing expense and can impact affordability.
Condominium Lifestyle Limitations: As a condominium, the property inherently involves shared walls, potential for noise transfer from neighbors, and restrictions imposed by HOA rules, which may not appeal to all buyers seeking greater privacy or autonomy.
Compact Interior Space: While efficiently designed, the 1168 sqft for a 2-bedroom unit might be considered compact for some buyers, potentially limiting flexibility for larger families or those desiring more expansive living areas.
