Condition Rating
Fair
The property, built in 1987, is 37 years old, placing it within the 'Fair' category's age range. While the kitchen has been 'upgraded' with granite countertops and stainless steel appliances, the light wood cabinet style and white tile flooring appear dated, suggesting this renovation occurred 15-20 years ago rather than recently. No images of the bathrooms are provided, but it's reasonable to assume they are either original or similarly dated. The rest of the unit features a mix of laminate wood flooring, carpet, and ceiling fans, all appearing clean and functional but not modern. The property is move-in ready and well-maintained, but major components show signs of being outdated, and it would benefit from minor cosmetic updates to bring it to current aesthetic standards.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Gated Community: The property is located within a gated community, offering enhanced security and privacy for residents.
Upgraded Kitchen: The kitchen features upgraded granite countertops, providing a modern and appealing aesthetic.
Private Outdoor Space: A private patio offers valuable outdoor living space, a desirable amenity for condominium living.
In-Unit Laundry: The unit includes a dedicated laundry closet for a full-size washer and dryer, adding significant convenience.
City Lights View: The property boasts a desirable 'City Lights' view, enhancing its appeal and potential value.
Cons
Property Age: Built in 1987, the property is 37 years old, which may imply older systems or components that could require future maintenance or upgrades beyond the kitchen.
Monthly Association Fee: A monthly association fee of $377.0 represents a significant recurring cost that buyers must factor into their budget.
Limited Bathroom Count: With 1.5 bathrooms for a 2-bedroom unit, the property offers fewer full bathroom facilities compared to some comparable units, which could be a minor inconvenience for occupants.
