Property is moderate renovation needed.
The property was built in 1988 (36 years old) and appears to be in mostly original condition. While well-maintained and functional, the kitchen and bathroom are dated with older white appliances and cabinetry. The presence of electric baseboard heating and older carpeting suggests the systems and finishes are beyond the 20-year mark, requiring cosmetic updates and modernization to meet current market standards.
Middle School: Albany Middle School (9/10). High School: Albany High School (9/10).
Situated in a 'Walker’s Paradise' steps from BART, Trader Joe's, and El Cerrito Plaza, this property offers unparalleled convenience for commuters and easy access to diverse retail and dining options.
The property is zoned for the highly coveted Albany Unified School District, including top-rated Albany High and Middle Schools, which significantly bolsters long-term resale value and desirability.
The $930 monthly HOA fee is notably high for a one-bedroom unit, which may impact buyer affordability and reduce the overall pool of qualified applicants.
At 688 square feet, the compact footprint may feel restrictive for buyers seeking a home office or more generous living areas, potentially limiting its appeal to single occupants or couples.
Rare top-floor 1 bedroom, 1 bath condo perfectly located in the heart of coveted Albany. Steps from El Cerrito Plaza, BART, Trader Joe's, buses, restaurants, and few mins to Pacific East Mall, Costco, Sprouts, Targets, and top-rated Albany Schools (K-12). Truly walker's and Biker's Paradise! 2 secured garage parking spaces plus bonus storage space. 10 minutes drive to UC Berkeley.
No exterior & parking available.
