Condition Rating
Poor
Built in 1972 and explicitly stated to be in 'original condition,' this property is 52 years old with no major renovations in the past 50 years. The images confirm extremely dated kitchen and bathroom features, including original wood cabinets, old white appliances, linoleum flooring, and an outdated vanity and fixtures. The property requires substantial repairs and rehabilitation to modernize and update major components, which are likely at or beyond their expected lifespan.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Significant Value Proposition: A recent trustee appraisal of $840,000 significantly exceeds the current list price of $688,000, suggesting substantial potential equity or an immediate value opportunity for the buyer.
Extensive Community Amenities: Located within Leisure World (Laguna Woods), the property benefits from a highly active 55+ community renowned for its vast array of activities and amenities, enhancing resident lifestyle.
Functional Dual Primary Suites: The property features two primary bedrooms, each with its own private bathroom, offering excellent flexibility for residents, guests, or potential caregivers.
Private Outdoor Space & Parking: Includes a private patio for outdoor enjoyment and a dedicated 1-car garage, providing valuable private outdoor living and convenient, secure parking.
Convenient Community Access: Strategically located between two community gates, offering residents easy and efficient access to and from the subdivision.
Cons
Original Condition: The property is explicitly stated to be in 'original condition,' indicating a need for significant updates and renovations to modernize and enhance its overall appeal and functionality.
High Association Fees: The monthly association fee of $855.0 is substantial and represents a significant ongoing cost, which could impact affordability and buyer interest.
Property Age & Potential for Updates: Built in 1972, the property's age suggests that major systems and components may be original or nearing the end of their lifespan, potentially requiring future capital expenditures for replacements or upgrades.
