Condition Rating
Fair
The property, built in 1980, is well-maintained with desirable features like hardwood floors throughout and an in-unit laundry. However, the kitchen and bathrooms, while functional and clean, show significant signs of being outdated. The kitchen features older white appliances and cabinetry, and the bathrooms have dated fixtures and vanities. These areas would require minor to moderate updates to meet current aesthetic and functional standards, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria for a property of its age with older renovations.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Desirable Pasadena Location: The property is situated in Pasadena, offering excellent proximity to shopping, dining, and other points of interest, enhancing lifestyle and potential appreciation.
Excellent Interior Condition & Features: Described as being in 'EXCELLENT CONDITION' with desirable features like hardwood flooring throughout and a fireplace, suggesting a move-in ready home.
Convenient In-Unit Laundry: The inclusion of an 'IN UNIT LAUNDRY AREA' provides significant convenience and is a highly sought-after amenity in condominium living.
Secure Gated Two-Car Garage: A 'GATED 2 GARAGE' offers secure, dedicated parking, which is a valuable asset in an urban setting and provides peace of mind.
Abundant Natural Light & Spaciousness: Features like a 'SKYLIGHT IN THE BATHROOM' and 'SPACIOUS LIVING SPACE' contribute to a bright and open feel within the unit.
Cons
Significant Monthly HOA Fees: The $455.0 monthly association fee represents a substantial recurring expense that buyers must factor into their budget.
Absence of Scenic Views: The property explicitly states 'view:None,' which may deter buyers who prioritize scenic outlooks or natural light from expansive windows.
History of Price Reductions: The property has undergone multiple price reductions from its original listing, which could suggest initial overpricing or market challenges, potentially impacting buyer perception of value.
