Condition Analysis
OVERALL CONDITION SCORE
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1989, this penthouse is well-maintained and move-in ready, but it shows clear signs of its age. While the kitchen features updated stainless steel appliances and granite countertops, the black cabinetry, track lighting, and wall textures are dated. The bathrooms and bedrooms retain late-80s/early-90s features such as Hollywood-style light bars and gold-trimmed mirrored closet doors. It meets the 'Fair' criteria as an aged property maintained through regular upkeep but lacking a recent comprehensive renovation to modern standards.
PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES
- Great Schools
Elementary School: Fairburn Avenue Elementary School (9/10).
- Prime Location
Situated in the highly coveted Westwood/Century City area, this property offers exceptional proximity to UCLA, the Google Campus, and premier shopping at Century City.
- Private Rooftop Deck
The residence features a spectacular private rooftop deck with sweeping city and mountain views, providing a rare and expansive outdoor space for year-round entertaining.
CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- High Association Fees
The monthly HOA fee of $775 is relatively high for a boutique six-unit building that does not offer common amenities such as a pool, gym, or 24-hour security.
- Loft Privacy Concerns
The third bedroom is configured as an upstairs loft, which may lack the acoustic and visual privacy required for a traditional bedroom setup.
- Dated Interior Elements
While elegant, the 1989 construction and features like plantation shutters and specific stone finishes may feel dated to buyers seeking a contemporary or ultra-modern aesthetic.
