Condition Rating
Good

Built in 1965, this condo has undergone recent significant updates, including new laminate flooring, carpet, and paint, making it move-in ready. The kitchen has been nicely remodeled with granite countertops and modern appliances (dishwasher, overhead microwave, refrigerator, and stove). While the bathrooms are clean and functional, at least one (as seen in Image 6) appears basic and not extensively updated. The primary drawback is the dated radiant ceiling heat and all-electric utilities, which are less efficient than modern HVAC systems. Overall, the property is well-maintained with recent improvements, aligning with the 'Good' criteria of being move-in ready with functional systems, but not a full, top-tier renovation.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Great Schools: Elementary School: Lowell Elementary School (9/10).
Exceptional Location & Walkability: Situated in the desirable Belmont Heights, offering direct walking access to Belmont Shore's vibrant 2nd Street shops, restaurants, and the beach.
Modernized Interior & Spacious Layout: Features an open layout with recent updates including new flooring, paint, and a nicely remodeled kitchen with granite countertops, complemented by a generous 1498 sqft across 3 bedrooms and 2 baths.
Valuable Parking & Storage: Includes two dedicated parking spaces and overhead storage units, which are highly sought-after amenities in condominium living.
Complex Amenities & Views: The complex provides convenient features like a lobby for package delivery, common laundry, and storage, while the unit itself offers pleasant neighborhood and city lights views from a private balcony.
Recent Price Adjustment: A significant $40,000 price reduction from the original list price indicates a motivated seller and potential for a competitive acquisition.

Cons

Dated Heating System: The property utilizes radiant ceiling heat, which is an older technology that can be less efficient and potentially more costly to operate than modern HVAC systems.
High Monthly Association Fee: A substantial monthly association fee of $573.0 adds a significant recurring cost to homeownership, impacting overall affordability.
All-Electric Utilities: Being an all-electric unit, particularly with radiant ceiling heat, may result in higher utility expenses compared to properties with natural gas options.
