Condition Rating
Good
The property, built in 1974, features a 'previously updated interior' with a kitchen that includes granite counters, a modern electric stove/cooktop, and a stainless steel dishwasher, suggesting a renovation within the last 5-15 years. While the carpeted living areas and basic light fixtures are not ultra-modern, the overall unit appears clean, well-maintained, and 'move-in ready' as described. The absence of bathroom images prevents a full assessment of that area, but the visible updates in the kitchen and general condition align with the 'Good' criteria for a property that has undergone significant updates and is functional with minimal wear.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Prime Location: Situated in the highly desirable Jack London Square area, offering excellent urban living and convenient access to the Amtrak station for commuters.
Move-in Ready Condition: The property is described as 'Move in Ready' with a 'Previously Updated Interior,' minimizing immediate renovation needs for a new owner.
Updated Kitchen: The kitchen features modern amenities including granite counters, a stainless steel sink, an electric stove/cooktop, and an open counter to the living room, enhancing functionality and appeal.
Desirable Views: The unit offers 'Views,' which typically adds to the property's aesthetic value and desirability, though specific details are not provided.
Accessible Price Point: Listed at $299,500, this 1-bedroom condominium presents a relatively accessible entry point into the competitive Oakland real estate market, particularly for the Jack London Square neighborhood.
Cons
High Association Fee: The monthly association fee of $691.0 is substantial and will significantly increase the overall cost of ownership, potentially impacting affordability for some buyers.
Compact Living Space: With 668 square feet, the 1-bedroom unit offers limited living space, which may not be suitable for buyers seeking more expansive accommodations or those planning for future growth.
Building Age: Built in 1974, the building is older, which could lead to higher maintenance costs or less modern infrastructure in common areas compared to newer constructions, despite interior updates.
