Condition Rating
Fair

The property, built in 1982, shows signs of regular maintenance and some updates like laminate wood flooring downstairs, recessed lighting, and crown molding. The planned new roof and fence in 2025 are significant capital improvements. However, the kitchen features dated wood cabinets, white appliances, and fluorescent lighting, while the bathrooms have older vanities, fixtures, and linoleum/vinyl flooring. The dark green carpet in the bedrooms is also significantly outdated. These key areas require substantial cosmetic updates to meet current market expectations, placing the property in the 'fair' category where major components are functional but show signs of being outdated.
Pros & Cons

Exceptional Location & Accessibility: Strategically located near Gold Line stations (Lake & Allen), major freeways, prestigious educational institutions (PCC, Cal Tech, Art Center), and vibrant Old Town Pasadena, offering unparalleled convenience.
Modern Interior Features: Boasts central heat and air, laminate wood flooring, crown molding, recessed lighting, and a fireplace, providing a comfortable and aesthetically pleasing living environment.
Comprehensive Appliance Package: Includes a full suite of kitchen appliances (gas stove, microwave, refrigerator, dishwasher) along with a washer and dryer, offering immediate move-in readiness.
Low-Density Gated Community with Amenities: A private, gated community of only 8 units with a very low HOA fee ($200), featuring a large shared courtyard ideal for outdoor entertaining.
Recent Major Capital Improvements: Benefits from a new roof and fence installed in 2025, significantly reducing immediate future maintenance concerns and enhancing property value.

Cons

Limited Dedicated Parking: Provides only one dedicated gated parking space, which could be a constraint for households with multiple vehicles or guests.
Compact Square Footage: At 863 sqft for a 2-bedroom, 2-bath townhouse, the interior living space is relatively modest, potentially limiting spaciousness for some buyers.
Age of Construction: Built in 1982, the property is over 40 years old, and while updated, some original elements or systems may eventually require attention or modernization.
