Condition Rating
Fair

The property, built in 1977, is well-maintained and functional but shows significant signs of being outdated. The kitchen features dated white cabinets, laminate countertops, and a mix of black and stainless steel appliances, along with older ceramic tile flooring. The bathroom also has dated ceramic tile and a standard tub/shower with a sliding glass door. While clean and livable, the interior finishes, light fixtures, and wall-mounted heating system are consistent with its age and would require minor updates and cosmetic renovations to meet current aesthetic standards. It does not present major defects or require substantial repairs, fitting the 'aged but maintained' criteria for a 'Fair' rating.

Exceptional Location & Walkability: The condo boasts an outstanding location with easy walking access to Downtown San Mateo, Downtown Burlingame, Caltrain stations, shopping, restaurants, parks, and the scenic Coyote Point Recreation Area.
Enhanced Privacy & Quiet Living: Positioned on the second floor with no neighbors above or below and sharing only one wall, this unit offers superior privacy and a quiet living environment.
Abundant Natural Light: Six large windows throughout the unit ensure ample natural light, creating a bright and inviting atmosphere.

Gated Community Security: Located within a gated community, residents benefit from enhanced security and a greater sense of privacy.

Cons

Compact Living Space: With 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom, and 710 sqft, the unit offers limited living space, which may not suit buyers seeking more room or future expansion.
High Association Fees: The monthly association fee of $513.00 is substantial and adds significantly to the overall cost of homeownership.
Listed Above Estimated Value: The current listing price of $529,000 is slightly above the estimated market value of $510,529, potentially requiring negotiation or limiting immediate equity for a buyer.
