More Insights

Built in 1968 (58 years old).
Condition: This townhouse, built in 1968, has undergone significant and high-quality renovations, particularly evident in the kitchen and bathrooms. The kitchen features modern white shaker-style cabinets, granite countertops, a contemporary subway tile backsplash, and a full suite of stainless steel 'chef's' appliances, including a built-in oven/microwave combo. The bathrooms are also updated with modern tile, vanities, and fixtures, including a stylish shower/tub combo with a glass enclosure. Throughout the living areas and bedrooms, the property boasts attractive hardwood flooring, with neutral tile in the kitchen, dining, and bathrooms, all appearing in excellent condition. Modern light fixtures are present. While the property's original build year is over 50 years ago, the extensive updates make it move-in ready with no immediate renovations required, aligning with the 'Good' criteria for properties extensively renovated within the last 5 to 15 years. The only minor detractor from an 'Excellent' score is the lack of a specified cooling system and the inherent age of the underlying building infrastructure, despite the visible cosmetic and functional upgrades.

Pros & Cons

Pros

Prime Marina Del Rey Location: The townhouse is ideally situated minutes from the beach, MDR Boardwalk, shopping (Trader Joe's, Marina Marketplace), dining, entertainment, bike trails, parks, freeways, and LAX, offering exceptional convenience and lifestyle appeal. Its adjacency to the Bologna Wetlands also provides natural beauty and tranquility.
Updated & Modern Kitchen: The kitchen has been intelligently laid out and renovated, featuring custom elements, a chef's stainless steel appliance package, and a breakfast bar, making it a highly functional and attractive space for cooking and entertaining.
Spacious & Bright Interior: The property boasts an expansive multi-level open floor plan with a vaulted living room ceiling, maximizing natural light throughout. The primary suite includes an enclosed balcony, offering a versatile space for an office or meditation.

Community Amenities & Security: Residents can enjoy community amenities such as a pool, sauna, and beautifully maintained landscaping. The Villa San Cipriano community also benefits from a nightly security patrol, enhancing safety and peace of mind.

Cons

Age of Building: Built in 1968, the property is over 50 years old. While updated, the underlying infrastructure (e.g., plumbing, electrical, roof) may still be original or require significant maintenance, which could lead to unforeseen costs.
High Association Fees: The monthly association fee of $440 is a substantial recurring expense that adds significantly to the overall cost of homeownership and should be factored into a buyer's budget.
Lack of Mentioned Cooling System: The property description does not specify the presence of a cooling system (e.g., air conditioning). This could be a significant comfort concern during warmer months in Southern California, potentially requiring future installation.
