Built in 1973, this property is aged but appears well-maintained. While it features newer carpet, window coverings, and some updated bathroom fixtures (Toto toilets, walk-in shower), the kitchen is explicitly stated to need updating, which is evident from the dated cabinets, appliances, and fluorescent lighting. Other areas show older styles such as white tiled flooring, popcorn ceilings, a dated chandelier, mirrored walls, and wall-mounted AC units. These elements indicate that while functional, the property requires significant aesthetic updates, especially in the kitchen and bathrooms, to meet modern standards.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Panoramic Views: The property boasts expansive panoramic views of city lights, hillsides, blue skies, and trees from the great room, kitchen, and bedrooms, complemented by a private, full-length balcony.
Extensive 55+ Community Amenities: Residents benefit from a wealth of community amenities including seven clubhouses, five Olympic-size pools, two golf courses, pickleball, tennis, stables, over 220 clubs, various classes (jewelry, woodworking, art), gardening plots, and an 800+ person theater.
Prime Location & Environment: Situated at the top of a hill, the unit enjoys refreshing ocean breezes from nearby Laguna Beach and is located in a quiet, park-like setting.
Functional Layout & Updates: This spacious two-bedroom unit features a flexible second bedroom with a built-in office and Murphy bed, along with newer carpet, window coverings, and a convenient in-unit stackable washer/dryer.
Accessibility: The property offers good accessibility with only a few steps up to the front door and no steps from the parking area through the scenic park-like setting to the building entrances.

Cons

Dated Kitchen: The kitchen is noted as needing updating, which could require additional investment for modernization to meet contemporary buyer preferences.
High & Restrictive HOA Costs/Requirements: The property carries a substantial monthly HOA fee of $855.17, significant upfront fees ($7,500 + $400 admin fee), and strict financial qualification criteria for buyers (minimum $60,000 yearly income and $200,000 in assets).
Market Perception & Price History: Multiple price reductions from an original list price of $500,000 to the current $429,900, coupled with the 'motivated seller' status, suggest potential challenges in market valuation or buyer interest.
