Condition Rating
Fair
Built in 1973, this studio condo shows its age, particularly in the kitchen and bathroom. The kitchen features a very outdated coil-top electric range and older cabinets, while the bathroom has dated black and white tiling. The parquet flooring and window AC unit are also indicative of an older property that has not undergone a major modern renovation. While functional and move-in ready, it requires significant updates to meet current aesthetic and comfort standards.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Exceptional Community Amenities: The property boasts a rare array of amenities for Los Angeles, including a pool, jacuzzi, sauna, and gym, all set within a serene, lush garden-style landscape, offering a resort-like living experience.
Prime Koreatown Location: Strategically located in the heart of Koreatown, providing unparalleled walkability to hospitals, diverse restaurants, and everyday essentials, appealing to those seeking an urban lifestyle.
Secure Gated Community: Being part of a secure, gated community offers residents enhanced peace of mind and exclusivity, a significant advantage in a bustling city environment.
Designated Parking Space: The inclusion of a designated parking space is a highly valuable asset in Los Angeles, where parking is often scarce and costly, adding significant convenience and appeal.
Peaceful Retreat Environment: Despite its central location, the property offers a peaceful retreat with fresh air and a tree-lined street, providing a tranquil living space uncommon in dense urban areas.
Cons
Limited Living Space: At only 368 square feet, this studio unit offers very limited living space, which may restrict its appeal to a smaller segment of buyers, primarily single occupants or those seeking a minimalist lifestyle.
Building Age: Built in 1973, the building is over 50 years old, which could imply older infrastructure, potential for future maintenance issues, or the need for significant capital improvements that may lead to special assessments.
High Association Fee for Size: The monthly association fee of $340 is relatively high for a 368 sqft studio, adding a substantial recurring cost that could deter budget-conscious buyers or impact affordability.
