Condition Rating
Fair
Built in 1981, this unit shows its age with no apparent major renovations. The kitchenette features basic, dated white cabinets and laminate countertops, with very limited appliances. The bathroom has an outdated vanity, countertop, light fixture, and shower enclosure, along with vinyl flooring. The living area carpet appears worn. While functional and 'move-in ready' as described, it requires significant cosmetic updates to meet modern standards, aligning with the 'fair' condition criteria for a property built over 20 years ago with no major recent renovations.

Prime North Park Location: Situated in the vibrant heart of North Park, offering a highly walkable lifestyle with immediate access to shops, dining, Balboa Park, and public transit.

Move-in Ready Condition: The condo is described as 'ready for immediate move-in' with 'thoughtfully designed living space,' minimizing immediate buyer expenses and effort.
Top Floor Unit Advantage: Being a top-floor unit typically offers enhanced privacy, reduced noise from above, and potentially better natural light.
Cons
Limited Living Space: At only 378 sq ft, the unit offers very compact living quarters, which may be a significant drawback for some buyers.
Relatively High HOA Fees: The $392 monthly association fee is substantial for a unit of this size and price point, impacting overall affordability and cash flow.
Building Age: Constructed in 1981, the building is over 40 years old, which could imply aging infrastructure and potential for future maintenance or renovation needs.
