Built in 1982, this penthouse unit has undergone significant and recent renovations, including a modernized kitchen with new cabinetry, quartz countertops, and stainless steel appliances, as well as a remodeled bathroom with stone tiling and modern fixtures. Hardwood floors throughout the living space and stone tile in the kitchen are in excellent condition. The overall aesthetic is contemporary and move-in ready. However, the property's age (1982) and the noted 'Lack of Central Air Conditioning' prevent it from reaching an 'Excellent' score, as this is a significant functional drawback for a penthouse in Los Angeles, even with other systems being well-maintained and updated.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Prime Downtown Location & Walkability: Exceptional walk score (94) and public transit score (100), offering unparalleled access to cultural landmarks, entertainment venues, dining, civic centers, and the Metro Regional Connector.
Penthouse Unit with Unobstructed Views: Top-floor penthouse unit boasting stunning, unobstructed DTLA skyline views, including iconic landmarks like Disney Concert Hall and The Broad Museum, enhanced by abundant natural light from South East exposure.
Modernized Interior & Open Floor Plan: The unit features a recently updated kitchen with new cabinetry, quartz countertops, and stainless steel appliances, a remodeled bathroom, hardwood floors throughout, and a bright, open layout with two private balconies.
Full-Service Luxury Building Amenities: Promenade West offers comprehensive amenities including 24-hour security/concierge, a pool, spa, exercise room, sauna, on-site manager, ample guest parking, an on-site dog park, and lush gardens with waterfalls.
HOA Inclusions & Financial Benefits: The HOA dues cover essential utilities such as water and trash, along with general liability, fire, and earthquake insurance, providing significant financial peace of mind and reducing individual owner costs.

Cons

High Monthly HOA Dues: The association fee of $1220 per month is substantial and could be a significant ongoing cost for potential buyers, impacting overall affordability.
Lack of Central Air Conditioning: The property description does not mention a cooling system, which could be a notable drawback for a penthouse unit in Los Angeles, especially during warmer months.
Seller Passed Away in Unit: The disclosure that the seller passed away peacefully in the unit, while a trust sale, may present a psychological barrier for some potential buyers.
