Condition Rating
Fair
Built in 1973, this condo has seen some positive updates such as bamboo flooring throughout, a modern wet bar, and updated kitchen cabinets and granite countertops. The building itself is described as well-maintained, and the exterior is currently being painted. However, the kitchen appliances, particularly the electric range, appear older and are not modern stainless steel. The cooling system is a wall-mounted AC unit, not central air, which is a significant drawback for a higher score. While the bathroom appears clean, it doesn't show signs of a recent, extensive renovation. The property is move-in ready and well-kept for its age, but key components like the kitchen appliances, cooling system, and overall bathroom style indicate it's aged but maintained, requiring minor updates to meet current standards, aligning with a 'Fair' condition.

Well-Maintained Building with Recent Upgrades: The building is described as 'very clean and well maintained,' with the exterior currently undergoing a modern white paint refresh, indicating proactive management and strong curb appeal.
Potential for In-Unit Laundry: There is a potential to add laundry facilities directly within the unit, subject to HOA approval, offering a significant convenience upgrade for future owners.
Cons
Building Age: Constructed in 1973, the building is over 50 years old, which may raise concerns about aging infrastructure, potential for future maintenance issues, or special assessments.
Lack of Explicit Cooling System: The property description does not mention a cooling system (e.g., central air conditioning), which could be a significant drawback during West Hollywood's warmer months.
HOA Approval for Laundry Installation: While in-unit laundry is a possibility, it requires HOA approval, introducing an additional step and potential uncertainty for a desired upgrade.
