Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1984 (40 years old), the property falls into the 'Fair' category due to its age and dated interior. While it features brand new carpet and appears well-maintained, the kitchen cabinetry and fixtures are original or aged (>20 years), and the wood-burning fireplace and track lighting reflect older design standards that require updating.
Situated directly across from Alki Beach and the historic lighthouse, the property offers an enviable lifestyle with immediate access to waterfront recreation, popular restaurants, and scenic walking paths.
The unit features a private balcony with Puget Sound views and access to a rooftop deck for panoramic sunsets, providing exceptional outdoor living space rarely found in boutique buildings.
The seller's agreement to pay the first 12 months of HOA dues provides a substantial financial benefit to the buyer, effectively reducing the first year's carrying costs by $18,000.
At $1,500 per month, the HOA dues are significantly higher than average for a sub-1,000 square foot unit, which may impact long-term affordability and future resale value.
Built in 1984, the property may require ongoing maintenance or modern updates to systems and interiors to compete with newer luxury developments in the Alki area.
