Property is move-in ready.
While built in 1986, the property shows clear signs of mid-term renovations including an updated bathroom with a modern vanity and tiled walk-in shower, a contemporary fireplace insert, and plantation shutters. The unit is well-maintained and move-in ready.
The property features rare and stunning unobstructed views of Rancho Santa Margarita Lake from a private upstairs balcony, significantly increasing its market desirability and aesthetic appeal.
The spacious loft provides excellent floor plan flexibility, offering the potential to be easily converted into a second bedroom, home office, or creative retreat.
The inclusion of both a detached single-car garage and an additional carport space is a significant advantage for a condominium, providing ample parking and storage options.
The monthly HOA fee of $521 is relatively high for a one-bedroom unit, which may impact the overall affordability and debt-to-income ratio for prospective buyers.
With only one bathroom to serve both the primary bedroom and the loft area, the layout may present convenience and privacy challenges for those utilizing the home as a multi-occupant space.
