Condition Rating
Fair
The property, built in 1985, has received recent cosmetic updates including new LVP flooring, fresh paint, and a reglazed bathtub, making it move-in ready. However, the kitchen features original-style wood-trimmed cabinets, white tile countertops, and older white appliances, which are significantly dated. Similarly, the bathrooms, while clean, retain their original 1980s aesthetic with dated vanities and fixtures. While well-maintained and cosmetically refreshed, the core kitchen and bathroom styles and features are outdated, preventing a 'Good' score, but the recent updates keep it from being 'Poor'.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Exceptional Brightness & Privacy: As a corner unit on the top floor with vaulted ceilings and no neighbors above or below, the home benefits from abundant natural light and enhanced privacy.
Extensive Recent Upgrades: Over $20,000 has been invested in recent upgrades including brand new LVP flooring, fresh paint, new window coverings, and a reglazed bathtub, ensuring a move-in ready condition.
Convenient Lifestyle & Amenities: The property offers an attached garage, indoor laundry, private balconies, and access to community pool and tennis courts, all within walking distance to shopping and dining.
Favorable Financial Structure: Benefits from low property taxes and the absence of Mello Roos, contributing to lower overall ownership costs.
Highly-Rated School District: Located within the acclaimed Irvine Unified School District, with multiple top-performing elementary, middle, and high schools nearby.
Cons
Limited Square Footage: With 890 sqft, the living space is relatively compact, which may not suit buyers requiring more expansive interiors.
Significant Monthly HOA Dues: The $446 monthly association fee represents a notable recurring expense for homeowners.
Property Age: Built in 1985, the property is approaching 40 years old, potentially indicating older infrastructure or systems that may require future attention despite recent cosmetic updates.
