Condition Analysis

OVERALL CONDITION SCORE

Fair
TeardownExcellent

Property is moderate renovation needed.

The property was built in 2004, making it 20 years old. While the home appears well-maintained with clean hardwood floors in main living areas and no obvious signs of disrepair, the kitchen and bathrooms feature significantly outdated styles. The kitchen has tiled countertops, light wood cabinets, and older appliances (microwave, range). Similarly, the bathrooms present dated tiled countertops, light wood vanities, and early 2000s tile and light fixtures. These key areas are functional but show clear signs of being outdated and would require minor updates or renovations to meet current aesthetic standards.

PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES

  • Gated Community & Strategic Location

    Situated in the desirable, gated Top O'Topanga community, offering quick access to the beach (15 min), schools, major shopping, Calabasas, and Woodland Hills (5 min).

  • Extensive Community Amenities

    Residents benefit from a wide array of shared facilities including a large pool, spa, gym, clubhouse with recreational options, dog park, car wash, children's playground, and nearby hiking trails.

  • Panoramic Views & Outdoor Living

    The property boasts multiple decks providing incredible views of the San Fernando Valley, mountains, and treetops, ideal for outdoor entertainment and relaxation.

CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES

  • Significant Monthly Association Fee

    The $650 monthly association fee is substantial and could be a deterrent for budget-conscious buyers, impacting overall housing costs.

  • Mixed Flooring Materials

    The combination of wood and carpet flooring may require updating for buyers seeking a more cohesive or contemporary aesthetic throughout the home.

  • Absence of Central Air Conditioning

    The property description does not indicate the presence of central air conditioning, which could be a concern for comfort during warmer periods, despite Topanga's generally mild climate.
