Condition Analysis

Fair
TeardownExcellent
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1973, this property is well-maintained and move-in ready due to recent cosmetic refreshes including fresh paint and new carpeting. However, the kitchen remains dated with older wood cabinetry and laminate countertops, and the overall infrastructure appears to be over 20 years old, fitting the criteria for a property that is functional but needs modernization.
PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES
- Prime Coastal Location
Situated in the desirable Seascape community, this home offers exceptional walkability to Hidden Beach, Seascape Golf Course, and local resort amenities.
- Turnkey Condition
The condo is move-in ready with recent upgrades including fresh interior paint, new carpeting, and updated fixtures throughout.
- Significant Price Improvement
With a $100,000 reduction from the original list price, the property now offers excellent value for the Aptos coastal market.
CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- Extended Market Time
Having been on the market for over 120 days, the property may carry a 'stale' listing perception despite the recent price adjustments.
- High Monthly Carrying Costs
The $624 monthly association fee adds a substantial recurring expense to the ownership cost, which may deter budget-conscious buyers.
