Pros & Cons

Extensive & High-Quality Renovation: The condo has undergone a complete, high-quality renovation, including a new kitchen with honed granite and marble backsplash, LVP flooring, renovated baths with quartz, new cabinetry, and recessed lighting, making it move-in ready.
Prime Internal Location & Amenities Access: Strategically located adjacent to the pool/spa and Club Room, offering immediate and convenient access to a large clubhouse, gym, sauna, and other community amenities.
Modern Comforts & Included Appliances: Features central A/C and heat (A/C unit 5 years old), and includes a stackable washer/dryer and refrigerator, providing immediate comfort and convenience for the new owner.
Exceptional Parking & EV Readiness: Comes with two side-by-side secured parking spaces, each with storage cabinets, located steps from the elevator, and is pre-equipped for EV charger installation.
Prime External Location & Accessibility: Boasts an excellent location within walking distance to major shopping centers (The Shops at Rossmoor, Old Ranch Towne Center) with diverse dining and grocery options, plus easy access to the 22 and 405 Freeways.

Cons

Building Age: Built in 1974, the underlying structure is older, which could potentially lead to higher long-term building maintenance costs or special assessments for the HOA, despite the interior renovations.
High HOA Dues: The monthly HOA dues of $491.18, while inclusive of water, trash, and gas, represent a significant recurring expense that could impact affordability for some prospective buyers.
Courtyard View: The patio offers a courtyard view, which, while pleasant, is not a premium view (e.g., ocean, city lights, or expansive open space) and may not appeal to buyers seeking more dramatic or private vistas.
