Condition Rating
Fair
The property, built in 2004, is 20 years old. While the description notes 'fresh paint' and 'new flooring' in the main living areas, which appear clean and updated in the images, the kitchen is significantly dated. It features older white appliances, basic light wood cabinets, speckled countertops, and a black and white checkered floor. These elements are functional but clearly outdated in style and likely nearing the end of their aesthetic and practical lifespan. No bathroom images were provided, but typically, if the kitchen is dated, the bathroom may also require updates. The property is move-in ready and maintained, but the kitchen would require substantial updates to meet current quality standards and buyer expectations, aligning with the 'fair' condition criteria of requiring minor updates and showing signs of being outdated.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Prime Downtown Location: Located in the highly desirable 92101 San Diego Downtown area, offering excellent walkability to urban amenities, entertainment, and employment centers.
Exceptional Private Outdoor Space: Features a unique additional private patio/courtyard with a privacy fence, adding 300 sqft of valuable outdoor lounging and relaxing space, a rare find for a condominium.
Recent Updates & Move-in Ready: The unit boasts fresh paint, new flooring, and mirrored closets, presenting a well-maintained and updated interior ready for immediate occupancy.
Convenient In-Unit Amenities: Includes a stackable washer/dryer in the unit and its own walk-up entry, enhancing convenience and privacy for residents.
Competitive Pricing & Value Potential: With multiple price reductions from the original list price and currently listed below the estimated property value, it presents a potentially attractive investment opportunity.
Cons
High Association Fee: The monthly association fee of $888.0 is substantial for a 1-bedroom unit, which could significantly impact the overall cost of ownership and buyer affordability.
Compact Living Space: At 743 sqft, the unit offers relatively compact living quarters, which may be a limiting factor for buyers seeking more expansive indoor space.
Extensive Price Reductions: The property has undergone several price reductions from its original listing, which might suggest initial overpricing or challenges in market absorption at higher price points.
