Pros & Cons
Pros
Exceptional Location: Situated in the heart of Pasadena, offering unparalleled walkability to Old Town Pasadena, Paseo Colorado, major grocery stores (Whole Foods, Trader Joe’s), and the Metro Gold Line, ideal for urban living.
Modern & Well-Equipped Unit: Built in 2008, the unit features contemporary amenities including central A/C & heat, in-unit laundry, a tankless water heater, and all appliances included, providing a move-in ready experience.
Desirable Views: The private balcony offers attractive mountain and city views, enhancing the living environment and providing a pleasant outdoor space.
Building Amenities & Parking: Part of the 'Luxurious Cinema Lofts' and includes a dedicated 1-car parking space plus guest parking, a significant convenience in a dense urban area.
Stylish Interior Finishes: The unit boasts a sleek modern feel with stylish epoxy concrete floors and high ceilings, appealing to buyers seeking contemporary aesthetics.
Cons
Compact Living Space: At 550 sqft, the unit offers limited living space, which may not suit all buyer preferences or needs for a 1-bedroom unit, potentially impacting long-term comfort.
High Price Point for Size: The list price of $599,000 for 550 sqft results in a very high price per square foot, which could be a barrier for some buyers and may affect perceived value.
Monthly HOA Dues: The $313/month HOA fee adds a significant recurring cost to ownership, which, when considered with the compact size, might be a deterrent for budget-sensitive buyers.
