Condition Rating
Good
This condo, built in 1984, is move-in ready thanks to recent cosmetic updates including brand new carpeting and paint throughout. The kitchen features beautifully updated granite countertops and dark wood cabinets, with a mix of black and stainless steel appliances, making it functional and clean, though not cutting-edge modern. Bathrooms are similarly updated with granite vanities. While well-maintained and recently refreshed, the overall style of the updates and the age of the original structure prevent it from reaching an 'Excellent' rating, which typically implies a full, contemporary renovation or newer construction.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Move-in Ready & Updated Interiors: The condo is spotless and move-in ready, featuring brand new carpeting, fresh paint, a beautifully updated granite kitchen, and renovated bathrooms, minimizing immediate buyer expenses.
Functional Layout & In-Unit Laundry: The property boasts a practical split bedroom floorplan, a large open living area with a separate entry foyer, and convenient full-size, side-by-side in-unit washer and dryer.
Private Outdoor Space: A large private 22' x 6' balcony provides valuable outdoor living space, a desirable feature for condo residents.
Community Amenities: Residents benefit from a community pool, spa, and ample guest parking, enhancing lifestyle and convenience.
Strategic Location for SDSU Affiliates: Well-located in a quiet complex off El Cajon Blvd, the property is explicitly noted as perfect for students or employees of SDSU, indicating strong rental or owner-occupant demand from this demographic.
Cons
High Association Fee: The monthly association fee of $610.0 is substantial and could be a deterrent for some buyers, impacting overall affordability and cash flow.
Building Age: Built in 1984, the building's age, despite interior updates, may suggest older common area infrastructure or potential for future special assessments.
Proximity to Busy Thoroughfare: While 'tucked away,' the complex's location off El Cajon Blvd, a major arterial road, could still expose residents to traffic noise or congestion.
