Condition Rating
Fair

Built in 1976, this property shows signs of being well-maintained but is significantly outdated in its key areas. The kitchen features dated wood cabinetry, solid-surface countertops, a mix of stainless steel and white appliances, and a very old-fashioned grid ceiling light and linoleum/vinyl tile flooring. The bathrooms also present an older aesthetic with gold-framed sliding glass shower doors and dated vanities. While dual-pane windows and a heat pump are positive updates, the overall interior, including popcorn ceilings and older carpeting, indicates that the property requires minor to substantial aesthetic updates to meet current quality and style standards, aligning with the 'fair' condition criteria.

Scenic Views & Privacy: The top-floor condominium provides serene treetop views and tranquil vistas of the Aliso Viejo hills and Saddleback Mountain from a private, elevated covered balcony, ensuring peace and quiet above the street.
Well-Maintained Interior: The home features durable tile-style flooring, a kitchen with solid-surface countertops and a suite of appliances including a stainless-steel refrigerator and dishwasher, plus custom-built entertainment center and shelving, indicating good upkeep.
Enhanced Comfort & Efficiency: Equipped with dual-pane windows and sliding glass doors throughout, along with a heat pump, contributing to year-round comfort, noise reduction, and potential energy efficiency.

Cons

High Monthly Association Fee: The association fee of $873.42 per month is substantial and could be a significant ongoing cost for potential buyers, impacting overall affordability.
Dated Interior Elements: While well-maintained, elements like 'warm natural wood cabinetry' and an 'all-white electric range' may not align with contemporary design preferences and could require future updates.
Age-Restricted Community: The property is situated within a 55+ community, which significantly limits the potential buyer pool and could affect market time and resale value.
