Condition Rating
Good
The property, built in 1954, has undergone significant cosmetic updates, including new laminate flooring throughout, fresh paint, and updated light fixtures. The kitchen features newer stainless steel appliances (range, dishwasher), though the cabinets and countertops appear to be older styles that have been well-maintained or painted. Bathrooms are clean and functional with updated flooring, but the vanities, tile work, and one shower enclosure reflect a dated aesthetic. Overall, the home is move-in ready with no immediate renovation required, fitting the 'Good' condition criteria, as it has been extensively renovated within the last 5-15 years, despite the original build year.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Prestigious Address: Located on S Orange Grove Boulevard, a renowned and desirable street in Pasadena, offering a prestigious address and excellent access to city amenities.
Spacious Layout: With 1706 square feet for a 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom condominium, the property offers a generous and comfortable living space, exceeding typical condo sizes.
Desirable City: Situated in Pasadena, a highly sought-after city known for its vibrant culture, top-rated schools, and convenient access to Los Angeles attractions.
Premium Valuation: The $1.25 million list price indicates a high-value property, suggesting quality construction, desirable features, or a prime position within the market.
Low Maintenance Living: As a condominium, it offers the advantage of reduced exterior maintenance responsibilities, appealing to buyers seeking a lock-and-leave lifestyle.
Cons
High Monthly HOA Fees: The association fee of $854.56 per month is substantial and represents a significant ongoing cost that buyers must factor into their budget.
Building Age: Built in 1954, the property is in an older building, which may lead to concerns about aging infrastructure, potential for higher maintenance, or the need for interior updates.
Absence of Views: The property explicitly states 'None' for views, which can be a notable drawback for a high-end property where scenic outlooks are often expected.
