Condition Rating
Fair

Built in 1982, this condominium is well-maintained for its age, but the interior finishes, particularly in the kitchen and bathrooms, are significantly outdated. The kitchen features dated light wood cabinets, white laminate countertops, white appliances, and older tile flooring. The bathrooms also show dated vanities, light blue tiled countertops, and older light fixtures. While functional and clean, these areas would require substantial cosmetic updates or a full renovation to meet current aesthetic standards. The carpeted living areas also contribute to an older feel. The property is livable but shows clear signs of being aged with no major renovations in recent decades.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Great Schools: Elementary School: Warner Avenue Elementary School (9/10).
Prime Location & Walkability: Situated at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, one block from Ventura Blvd, offering exceptional walkability to Whole Foods, The Galleria, Arclight Cinemas, and popular local eateries, with easy freeway access.
Exceptional Size for 1-Bedroom: At 1,780 sq.ft., this is one of the largest 1-bedroom residences in the building, providing expansive living space uncommon for its bedroom count.
Robust Indoor-Outdoor Living: Features a full-length private balcony accessible from the living room, den, and bedroom, plus a rare private-use patio, ideal for outdoor enjoyment and container gardening.
Comprehensive HOA Amenities: Access to a suite of HOA amenities including a pool, spa, sauna, BBQ area, recreation room with full kitchen, secured lobby, elevator access, and gated 2-car parking plus guest spaces.
Spacious & Well-Appointed Master Suite: The oversized bedroom boasts a massive walk-in closet and a large en-suite bath with both a soaking tub and a separate walk-in shower, offering a luxurious private retreat.

Cons

High HOA Dues: The monthly HOA fee of $750 is substantial, which could impact the overall affordability and appeal for some potential buyers, despite the included services.
Limited Bedroom Count: Despite its generous square footage, being a 1-bedroom unit limits its market appeal primarily to singles or couples, potentially narrowing the buyer pool compared to multi-bedroom properties.
Building Age: Built in 1982, the property is over 40 years old, which may raise concerns about aging infrastructure, potential for future maintenance issues, or special assessments, even with current HOA coverage.
