6 Sonoma County Condos Perfect to Start Up or Downsize
535, boul. Mission, Santa Rosa – $ 319,000
1 bed, 1 bath, 853 square feet. Year of construction: 1989.
The exterior of this condo is basic, and it is important to note that it is on the second floor, so a good walk will be necessary.
Salon.
Although smaller, this condo makes the best use of the available space. The parquet and the fresh paint certainly help.
Master bedroom.
For a couple just starting out or just retired with an empty nest, this large bedroom with a large mirrored closet is perfect.
645 Olive Street, Santa Rosa – $ 335,000
2 beds, 2 baths, 973 square feet. Year of construction: 1984.
At the time of this writing, this condo was available, but by evening it was already on hold.
Entrance.
Wood floors and lots of open space make this condo more spacious than expected. The added benefits of hardwood floors are easy cleaning and much less wear and tear in high traffic areas than with carpet.
Storage in the yard.
One of the probable reasons this condo is already on hold is the inclusion of a small yard as well as a storage shed. A common complaint that I have heard from people who live in apartments is the lack of storage space and the need to pay extra for storage space. Although it is not important, it is more useful than not.
574 Racquet Club Cir, Rohnert Park – $ 439,000
3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, 1,422 square feet. Year of construction: 1979.
From the outside this condo looks pretty basic, if not a bit drab, but it’s the interior that buyers are really looking for.
Interior of the ground floor.
At 1,422 square feet, this condo has plenty of space for a small family, and the fact that it’s one story helps add a lot of architectural interest to the interior.
Upstairs bedroom.
The bedrooms are located upstairs and appear to be freshly carpeted. While hardwood floors may be easier to clean, the benefit of carpet here is to keep rooms comfortable in colder weather. The spacious closets are a plus.
7771 Healdsburg Ave APT 7, Sevastopol – $ 449,000
2 beds, 1 bath, 1200 square feet. Year of construction: 1976.
This West County condo is located on the second floor, so it’s important to keep in mind the amount of furniture or belongings to carry on move-in day.
Interior.
Of all the condos to date, this one makes the best use of the layout and natural lighting to make this entryway comfortable and inviting.
Pool.
This condo has a community pool, one of the reasons some retirees may choose to downsize. Pool maintenance is time consuming and expensive – the fact that it is one of the many amenities covered by an HOA may be worth it for some.
920 5th St W UNITE G, Sonoma – $ 589,000
2 beds, 2 baths, 1,201 square feet. Year of construction: 1984.
Heading towards Sonoma, this condo manages to give a cottage feel with the exterior, but still has room inside for 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
Living room, lunchroom
This is another condo that hides all the surprises inside. The raised ceilings and wooden floors create a feeling of very spacious space inside.
Laundry room.
Speaking of amenities, anyone who leaves apartment living will certainly appreciate having their own washer / dryer – no more visits to the laundromat.
1516 Casa Grande Road, Petaluma – $ 628,000
3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, 1420 square feet. Year of construction: 1981.
To complete the list this condo in Petaluma which really is the most traditional home feeling once you step inside and get a feel for the amenities.
Salon.
The interior is nicely decorated and well maintained, but it’s not the most exciting piece of equipment on offer. It’s when you step out into the backyard that you can see why the price is a bit higher than most.
Court.
A large outdoor courtyard with room for entertaining is always appreciated.
2 car garage.
The real winner is the 2 car garage. No more parking in an outdoor space and the reducers will be delighted to be able to pull out in peace.
