Condition Rating
Excellent

Despite being built in 1981, this property has clearly undergone an extensive and high-quality renovation, likely within the last 5 years. The kitchen features modern flat-panel cabinetry, sleek white countertops, a stylish patterned backsplash, and new stainless steel appliances (including an LG refrigerator and a professional-style range hood). The bathroom is equally impressive with a floating vanity, vessel sink, wall-mounted faucet, backlit mirror, and a contemporary tiled walk-in shower with a glass enclosure. Throughout the unit, there's new light wood-look flooring, recessed lighting, modern light fixtures, and fresh paint with tasteful accent walls. All visible components appear new or virtually new, meeting current quality standards with no deferred maintenance, aligning perfectly with the 'Excellent' condition criteria for a recently renovated property.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Exceptional Location & Walkability: Centrally located with a 97 walk score, offering easy access to Lake Merritt, Grand Lake Theater, retail, amenities, Trader Joe's, and public transit, including transbay buses.
Boutique Building & Privacy: A sought-after boutique condo with only 15 units, providing a sense of exclusivity, privacy, and a 'retreat from city life' atmosphere.
Updated & Aesthetic Interiors: Features a warm, contemporary design with a fireplace, accent walls, and tasteful, quality finishes in the kitchen and bathroom, enhancing its modern appeal.
Convenient In-Unit & Building Amenities: Includes highly desirable amenities such as in-unit laundry, secure below-ground parking, and additional storage, adding significant convenience for residents.
Abundant Natural Light & Private Outdoor Space: Boasts floor-to-ceiling windows and a large private balcony, creating a bright living space with 'treehouse vibes' and an inviting connection to the outdoors.

Cons

High Monthly Association Fee: The $607.0 monthly association fee is substantial for a 1-bedroom unit, adding a significant ongoing cost to homeownership.
Limited Bedroom Count: As a 1-bedroom unit, it caters to a narrower buyer demographic, primarily singles or couples, and may not accommodate those needing additional space for a home office or family.
Absence of Central Air Conditioning: The property description does not mention a cooling system, which could be a drawback for comfort during warmer months, especially for buyers accustomed to central air.
