Condition Rating
Excellent

Despite being built in 1973, this property has undergone significant, high-quality renovations, particularly in the kitchen. The kitchen features a double-waterfall island, quartz countertops, custom white cabinetry, a full tile backsplash, and top-tier stainless steel appliances including a Sub-Zero refrigerator and a Wolf range, all indicative of a very recent and extensive update. The property boasts wood flooring throughout and elegant lighting, contributing to a modern and luxurious feel. While one visible bathroom vanity appears to be an older style, the overall presentation, high-end finishes, and 'move-in ready' description suggest that the property has been extensively renovated to current quality standards with minimal physical depreciation, aligning closely with the 'Excellent' criteria.
Pros & Cons

Unbeatable Location & Lifestyle: Directly across from the sand in prestigious North Laguna, offering immediate access to beaches, shops, restaurants, and parks, embodying the coveted Laguna Beach lifestyle.
Panoramic Ocean Views: Features breathtaking, unobstructed panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean, Catalina Island, breaking waves, and sunsets from multiple rooms and an oversized deck.
Luxuriously Renovated Kitchen: Boasts a fully updated kitchen with high-end appliances (Sub Zero, Wolf), quartz countertops, a double-waterfall island, and custom cabinetry, appealing to discerning buyers.
Move-in Ready & Upscale Finishes: Presented as a 'fabulous move-in-ready' penthouse with elegant wood flooring, French doors, skylights, and an interior washer/dryer, minimizing immediate buyer investment.
Exclusive Small Development: Located within a small, upscale development of only nine units, offering a sense of exclusivity and privacy.

Cons

High Monthly Association Fees: The $1,000 monthly association fee is a significant ongoing expense that could deter some buyers.
Limited Parking: Only one covered parking space is provided, which may be insufficient for a two-bedroom unit or for residents with multiple vehicles or guests.
Absence of Central Air Conditioning: As a 1973 build, the property description does not mention central air conditioning, which could be a comfort concern during warmer periods, especially for a luxury property.
