Condition Rating
Fair
Built in 1985, this condominium is well-maintained and move-in ready, featuring hardwood floors throughout. However, the kitchen and bathrooms show significant signs of being outdated, with light wood cabinets, older countertops, and particularly dated light fixtures (fluorescent box light in kitchen, strip lights in bathrooms). While functional, these areas would require minor updates to meet current aesthetic standards, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria for properties built over 20 years ago with functional but outdated components.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Move-in Ready Condition: The property is described as 'impeccable' and 'move-in ready,' suggesting excellent condition and no immediate need for renovations, offering immediate occupancy.
Premium Interior Finishes: Features like hardwood floors throughout enhance the aesthetic appeal and durability, providing a modern and desirable living environment.
Attached Oversized 2-Car Garage: A significant convenience for a condominium, providing ample parking, secure storage, and direct home access.
Convenient Urban Location: Situated close to shopping, restaurants, and entertainment in Downey, offering high walkability and easy access to amenities.
Cost-Effective HOA: The low HOA fees are a notable financial benefit, reducing monthly ownership costs compared to many other condominium developments.
Cons
Compact Living Space: With 907 sqft for a 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom unit, the interior living space may feel constrained for buyers seeking more expansive rooms or accommodating larger households.
Lack of Desirable Views: The property explicitly states 'view: None,' which means it lacks scenic or panoramic outlooks that some buyers prioritize.
Potential for Aging Systems: Built in 1985, the property's core systems (e.g., HVAC, plumbing, electrical) may be original or nearing the end of their typical lifespan, potentially requiring future upgrades or maintenance.
