Condition Rating
Fair
The property was built in 1987, making it 38 years old. While the description states it's a 'well-maintained' complex and the exterior image shows a tidy facade and landscaping, there are no interior images provided. Without visual confirmation of the kitchen, bathrooms, flooring, or appliances, it's highly probable that these elements are original or have only received minor updates over the decades, showing signs of being outdated. This aligns with the 'Fair' criteria of being aged but maintained, with functional but outdated major components, and likely requiring minor updates or repairs to meet current standards.
Pros & Cons

Prime Pasadena Location: Situated on a tree-lined street in a highly sought-after Pasadena neighborhood, offering excellent urban convenience.

Single-Story Layout: A charming single-story condo, providing easy accessibility and a comfortable living arrangement without stairs.
Cons
Compact Interior Space: At 890 sqft, the living space is relatively compact for a 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom unit, which may limit appeal for those desiring more room.
Monthly Homeowners Association (HOA) Fees: The $425 monthly HOA fee adds a significant recurring cost to homeownership, impacting affordability.
Condo Living Restrictions: As a condominium, it entails shared walls, potential noise transfer, and adherence to HOA rules and regulations, which may not suit all buyers seeking maximum privacy or autonomy.
