The unit includes highly sought-after features such as in-unit laundry, stainless steel appliances, and gated parking, which are often missing in older coastal condominiums.
The monthly association fee of $475 is relatively high for a one-bedroom unit, which may affect the overall affordability and debt-to-income ratio for some buyers.
Constructed in 1969, the building may require more frequent maintenance or lack the contemporary amenities and energy efficiencies found in newer residential developments.
