Despite being built in 1986, this property has undergone an extensive and recent renovation. The description highlights a 'fresh interior with full repaint and new flooring' and a 'new water heater.' Images confirm a fully updated kitchen with white shaker cabinets, light quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and subway tile backsplash. Bathrooms are also completely modernized with new vanities, quartz counters, modern fixtures, and subway tile showers/tubs. The flooring is new LVP in main areas and new carpet in bedrooms. The overall aesthetic is current and move-in ready, meeting the 'virtually new' standard for a recently renovated property.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Prime Location & Accessibility: Strategically located close to downtown Laguna Beach, scenic hiking trails, beaches, dining, and major routes connecting to San Clemente, Newport Beach, Irvine, and John Wayne Airport.
Move-in Ready & Updated Interior: Features a fresh interior with a full repaint, new flooring, and a new water heater, making it immediately move-in ready for new owners.
Desirable Unit Features: An end-unit townhome with a private entrance, soaring vaulted ceilings, skylights, an open living/dining area, and a convenient main-level primary suite with a private patio.
Community Amenities & Practicality: Residents benefit from community amenities including two pools and spas, complemented by two dedicated garages with storage for added convenience.
FHA and VA Approved: The community is FHA and VA approved, significantly broadening the potential buyer pool and offering flexible financing options.

Cons

High Association Fees: The monthly association fee of $858.0 is substantial and could be a significant ongoing cost for potential buyers, impacting affordability.
Lack of Central Air Conditioning: There is no mention of a cooling system, which could be a notable drawback during warmer months in Southern California.
Limited Views: While offering tranquil greenbelt and hillside views, the property lacks the highly coveted ocean views often associated with premium Laguna Beach properties, potentially limiting its top-tier market appeal.
