Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1955, the property features some cosmetic updates such as laminate flooring, but remains largely dated. The utility area shows significant wear with aged plumbing and fixtures, and the absence of kitchen or bathroom photos suggests these primary areas likely require modernization. It appears maintained but shows the typical physical depreciation of a 70-year-old structure without a recent full renovation.
Situated just a few blocks from the beach and within walking distance to the East Village Arts District and Downtown Long Beach, offering high lifestyle appeal.
The monthly HOA fee of $172.74 is exceptionally low for the region, significantly improving the property's affordability and net ROI for investors.
As a ground-floor corner unit in a garden-style community, the property benefits from enhanced accessibility, privacy, and increased natural light.
At only 460 square feet, the studio layout may restrict the buyer pool to individuals or couples and limits long-term versatility.
Built in 1955, the property may require ongoing maintenance or modernization of systems compared to newer condominium developments.
