Condition Rating
Good

Built in 1994, this penthouse has undergone significant, high-quality renovations, making it move-in ready. The gourmet kitchen features top-tier Viking, Sub-Zero, and Monogram appliances, complemented by granite countertops and well-maintained wood cabinetry. Bathrooms boast marble counters and quality finishes. While the overall aesthetic, including some light fixtures and cabinet styles, suggests a renovation that is likely 10-15 years old rather than brand new, all major systems (AC, tankless hot water) are modern and functional. The property is in excellent condition with no immediate renovation needs, aligning perfectly with the 'Good' criteria.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Unrivaled Oceanfront Location & Views: Direct beachfront access with unobstructed white water views from a top-floor penthouse, offering a premier coastal living experience.
Exceptional Village Walkability: Perfectly situated in the heart of Carlsbad Village, providing immediate access to boutiques, dining, and a vibrant seaside community.
Unique Beachfront 'Beach Room': A separate, upgraded 200-250 sqft beachfront space with ocean views, offering unparalleled convenience for beach essentials and direct sand access.
Luxury Interior Finishes & Appliances: Features professional interior design, custom wood-beamed vaulted ceilings, stone fireplaces, and a gourmet kitchen equipped with high-end Viking and Sub-Zero appliances.
Private Outdoor Living & Amenities: Includes a 45-foot private oceanfront balcony with glass wind walls, tankless hot water, air conditioning, and dedicated parking (attached garage + additional space).

Cons

High Monthly Association Fee: The significant monthly association fee of $1,033.33 could be a considerable ongoing expense for potential buyers.
Building Age (1994): While the interior is updated, the 1994 construction date suggests the building's common areas and infrastructure are 30 years old, potentially leading to future maintenance or assessment costs.
Potential for Noise/Crowds: Its prime beachfront and village-center location, while convenient, may expose residents to increased noise and foot traffic, especially during peak seasons.
