Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1991, this 33-year-old property falls within the 25-40 year age bracket typical of the 'fair' condition score, especially as there is no mention of recent major renovations. While the description notes the home is 'bright and airy' with functional kitchen appliances and tile flooring, the exterior images show some weathering on the stucco and an older AC condenser unit. As a probate sale currently being prepared for photography, it likely retains its original 1990s styling and components, requiring minor cosmetic updates to meet modern standards.
As a front-facing end unit that lives like a single-family home, this property offers superior privacy and natural light compared to standard interior condominium units.
The monthly HOA fee of $175 is exceptionally low for a gated community in the South Bay area, significantly enhancing the property's affordability and monthly cash flow.
The primary retreat features high-end architectural details including soaring vaulted ceilings, a double-door entry, a walk-in closet, and its own private balcony.
As a probate sale that may require court confirmation, buyers should anticipate a potentially longer and more rigid closing process than a traditional transaction.
The assigned public schools, particularly the high school with a rating of 3, may be a concern for families prioritizing high-performing educational districts.
Built in 1991 and currently being prepared for photography, the property may require cosmetic updates or system modernizations to compete with newer or fully renovated units in the area.
Property is now available for immediate showings—keys were just received from the prior tenant. This is a cosmetic fixer offering strong upside.
