Condition Rating
Good
Built in 2009, this unit falls within the 'Good' condition age range. The kitchen features newer stainless steel appliances, which is a plus, though the light wood cabinetry and dark granite countertops reflect the original build era rather than a recent full renovation. The bathroom is clean and functional with white subway tile and standard fixtures, but its style is basic and not recently updated. Overall, the property appears well-maintained with hardwood flooring in living areas and carpet in bedrooms in good condition, and modern elements like the cable railing. It is move-in ready with no immediate renovations required, aligning with the 'Good' score criteria.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Modern & Top-Floor Unit: This modern, top-floor unit, built in 2009, offers desirable features such as reduced noise, enhanced privacy, and potentially better views and natural light.
Prime Location: The property boasts an excellent location with convenient access to BART public transportation and the vibrant Temescal shopping district, appealing to commuters and those seeking urban amenities.
Exceptional Light & Views: Featuring a spectacular upper-level great room with double sliding glass doors, the unit is flooded with amazing natural light and offers a great view, including city lights.
Updated Kitchen: The kitchen is equipped with newer stainless steel appliances, including a dishwasher and disposal, providing a contemporary and functional cooking space.
In-Unit Laundry: The convenience of in-unit laundry on the bedroom level is a significant advantage, offering ease and privacy for residents.
Cons
Probate Sale with Court Confirmation: The property is subject to a probate sale requiring court confirmation, which can lead to a longer, more complex, and potentially less predictable transaction process for buyers.
High Association Fee: A monthly association fee of $600 is substantial and adds a significant ongoing cost to homeownership, which could impact affordability and buyer interest.
Limited Bathroom Count: With only one bathroom for a two-bedroom unit, this property may present practical challenges for multiple occupants or guests, potentially limiting its appeal to certain buyer demographics.
