Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1979, the property is functional but significantly dated. The kitchen and bathrooms retain older cabinetry and fluorescent light boxes (likely >20 years old), and popcorn ceilings are present. While the HVAC system has been updated with a modern mini-split and some appliances are newer, the core interior finishes require modernization to meet current standards.
Situated in the heart of downtown Ventura, this property offers exceptional walkability to the beach, the pier, and the vibrant dining and shopping scene on Main Street.
Rare for a condominium, the unit features three distinct outdoor spaces, including a front patio, a back patio, and a private balcony off the primary bedroom.
The townhouse-style design includes a highly desirable 2-car attached garage and in-unit laundry, providing the convenience and privacy typically found in a single-family home.
The monthly association fee of $500 is a significant recurring expense that may impact the overall affordability and long-term carrying costs for potential buyers.
Despite its coastal proximity, the property listing indicates no specific views, which may be a drawback for buyers seeking the ocean or mountain vistas common in the Ventura area.
Priced to renovate to your taste, this 2-bedroom, 2.5-bath townhouse-style condo offers 1,130 square feet in the gated Mission Plaza community, in the heart of historic downtown Ventura. Offered in its original 1979 condition with sound bones and a layout that works, it gives the next owner the chance to update the flooring, kitchen, and baths to their own vision while owning one of the most walkable addresses in the city for less. The two bedrooms sit upstairs, each with its own full bathroom, with a convenient half bath on the main level. Rare for a downtown condo, the home includes three private outdoor spaces: a front patio, a back patio, and a spacious balcony with updated railing off the upstairs primary bedroom. It also comes with a private two-car attached garage, one of the hardest things to find in downtown Ventura, so you park at home and keep both vehicles off the street. New Carrier heat pump, warms in the Winter, cools in the Summer. The HOA is $500 per month and covers water, sewer, and trash, plus access to the community spa and a shared event space with a full kitchen. The location is the rare part. The downtown Ventura farmers market sets up just outside the community entrance every weekend. Mission Basilica San Buenaventura, founded in 1782 and one of only three California mission sites inside a working downtown district, sits next door. Mission Park and Paradise Pantry, known for its French press coffee, are right across the street, and the beach and Main Street shops and restaurants are an easy walk from your door. This is the location-now, renovate-later trade: lock in the address today and make the finishes your own.
