This 1962 property has undergone significant recent cosmetic updates, making it move-in ready with no immediate renovations required. It features new deluxe vinyl plank flooring throughout, fresh paint, and a brand new oven. The bathroom includes a functional 'cut down shower' and a skylight. A modern mini-split HVAC unit is installed in the living room. While the kitchen cabinets are clean and white, some appliances (refrigerator, cooktop) and light fixtures (fluorescent panels) appear older, and the overall renovation is not a full, high-end modernization. However, the extensive recent updates elevate its condition beyond 'Fair'.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Extensive Community Amenities: The Leisure World community offers an unparalleled array of amenities including a golf course, pools, gym, numerous clubs, medical center, and 'On Demand' bus service, fostering an active and engaging lifestyle.
Turnkey & Recent Upgrades: The unit is move-in ready with new deluxe vinyl plank flooring, fresh paint throughout, and a brand new oven, minimizing immediate expenses for the buyer.
Prime Coastal Location & Affordability: Located in Seal Beach, less than two miles from the ocean and pier, offering affordable living within a highly desirable beach community.
Enhanced Security & Convenience: Benefits from a guard-gated community with 24-hour controlled access and a conveniently located carport directly across from the unit.
Private Outdoor Space & Natural Light: Features a large 'L' shaped patio perfect for enjoying ocean breezes and a bathroom skylight providing ample natural illumination.

Cons

Stock Cooperative Ownership: The property is a Stock Cooperative, which can present unique challenges with financing options, require board approval for transactions, and may not build equity in the same manner as traditional real estate.
High Association Fees: The monthly association fee of $571.34 is substantial for a 780 sqft unit, potentially impacting long-term affordability despite covering extensive community amenities.
Limited HVAC Coverage & Older Infrastructure: While a mini-split HVAC unit is present, it is only in the living room, potentially leading to uneven climate control. The 1962 build year also suggests older underlying infrastructure beyond recent cosmetic updates.
