Condition Rating
Good
Built in 1972, this condo has undergone significant recent cosmetic updates, making it move-in ready. The kitchen features stainless steel appliances and has been 'refreshed,' providing a functional and presentable space, though the cabinets and countertops are not high-end new. The bathrooms are 'updated' with clean finishes. New modern light fixtures, brand new fans, and fresh paint contribute to a bright and well-maintained interior. While the terra cotta tile flooring in some areas and the overall layout reflect its age, the property requires no immediate renovations and offers a comfortable living experience, aligning with the 'Good' condition criteria.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Prime Santa Monica Location: Situated north of Wilshire, moments from Montana Avenue's trendy shops and restaurants, and minutes from 3rd Street Promenade and Santa Monica Beach, offering unparalleled Westside living convenience.
Highly-Rated School District: Located within the award-winning Santa Monica district, serving highly rated Franklin Elementary and Lincoln Middle School, a significant draw for families.
Updated Interior & Features: The condo boasts a refreshed kitchen with stainless steel appliances, an updated primary en suite bath with dual sinks and a glass-enclosed shower, new fans, fresh paint, and modern light fixtures, ensuring move-in readiness.
Private Outdoor Space & Top Floor: As a top-floor unit, it offers enhanced privacy and light, complemented by a private balcony featuring a built-in BBQ station and lounge area for outdoor enjoyment.
Reasonably Low HOA Dues: The property benefits from reasonably low HOA dues, which is a significant financial advantage for condo ownership in a high-value area like Santa Monica.

Cons

Galley Kitchen Layout: Despite being refreshed with stainless steel appliances, the 'galley kitchen' layout may be perceived as less open or spacious compared to modern open-concept designs.
Building Age: Built in 1972, the building is over 50 years old, which could potentially lead to future common area maintenance or infrastructure updates not covered by the unit's interior refreshes.
Lack of Central Cooling System: The description mentions new fans but does not indicate the presence of a central air conditioning system, which could be a comfort consideration during warmer periods.
