Condition Rating
Fair
The property, built in 1984, shows signs of regular upkeep and some cosmetic updates such as modern LVP flooring and fresh paint throughout the living areas and bedrooms. However, the kitchen features dated light wood cabinetry, speckled laminate countertops, and track lighting, suggesting it has not undergone a major renovation in the last 15-30 years. While some appliances (refrigerator, dishwasher) appear to be newer stainless steel, the overall kitchen style is outdated. No bathroom images were provided for assessment. The combination of a 40-year-old building with partial updates and a noticeably dated kitchen places it in the 'Fair' category, indicating it is functional but requires minor updates to meet current aesthetic standards.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Exceptional Location: Situated in the heart of Bankers Hill, offering immediate access to local cafés, dining, Balboa Park, and minutes away from Downtown and Hillcrest.
Resort-Style Amenities: Residents enjoy a pool, spa, BBQ area, and a generous entertaining deck, enhancing the lifestyle appeal.
Desirable Unit Features: The condo boasts an open living area, kitchen with island seating, in-unit laundry, and a private terrace with treetop and westerly views.
Secure Parking & Storage: Includes two dedicated parking spaces and additional storage within a secure underground garage, a significant advantage in an urban setting.
VA-Approved Residence: The property's VA-approved status broadens the potential buyer pool, making it accessible to eligible veterans.
Cons
High Monthly HOA Dues: The association fee of $730.00 per month is substantial and could be a significant ongoing cost for potential buyers.
Building Age: Built in 1984, the building is 40 years old, which may imply potential for future maintenance or special assessments for common area updates.
Recent Price Adjustment: A recent price reduction from $739,000 to $729,000 could indicate that the initial pricing was ambitious or that market interest has been slower than anticipated.
