Condition Rating
Fair

The property, built in 1969, has been 'beautifully updated' as per the description. However, the images reveal that while clean and well-maintained, the kitchen features older white appliances, laminate countertops, and traditional-style painted cabinets, suggesting a renovation that is likely 15-30 years old rather than recent. The bathrooms also show similar dated fixtures and finishes. The flooring includes older vinyl tile and carpet. While functional and move-in ready, the property requires minor updates to bring the kitchen and bathrooms to current quality and style standards, aligning with the 'fair' condition criteria for an aged home maintained through regular upkeep with outdated components.
Pros & Cons

Updated & Bright End Unit: This upper end unit is beautifully updated and exceptionally bright, benefiting from abundant natural light through extra windows in the primary bedroom and bathrooms, and a large kitchen skylight.
Scenic Views & Outdoor Spaces: Enjoy mountain and greenbelt views from the bedrooms, along with neighborhood and sunset views from the covered back patio, providing peaceful outdoor relaxation and connection to nature. A covered entry patio offers space for plants or a small garden.
Spacious & Functional Interior: The property features an oversized living and dining area perfect for entertaining, a large primary suite with abundant closet space, a spacious pantry, and a convenient in-unit laundry room.
Secure & Well-Maintained Environment: The 55+ community provides secure entry, security patrols, and lush landscaping, ensuring a safe, tranquil, and aesthetically pleasing living environment.

Cons

High HOA Dues: The association fee of $1243.0 is substantial and represents a significant ongoing monthly cost for potential buyers, which could impact affordability and budget planning.
Age-Restricted Community (55+): Being a 55+ community significantly limits the potential buyer pool, which could impact marketability and resale value compared to unrestricted properties.
Building Age: Built in 1969, the building is over 50 years old. While the unit is updated, potential buyers may have concerns about the age of the overall building's infrastructure (e.g., plumbing, electrical systems, roof) which could lead to future assessments or maintenance issues.
