Each unit has an expansive floor plan which can accommodate large furniture as well as abundant storage and a large balcony.

Castlegate Condos 330 West California Blvd

 

Since the complex is 40 plus years old, you will find varying degrees of interior improvements in the individual unit which obviously has an effect on price and appeal.  This is particularly important to go beyond the numbers when a buyer is considering an offer or a prospective seller is selecting an appropriate listing price.   Differences in updates(or lack thereof) along with location within the complex, timing and emotional appeal are as much a factor to consider as is the square footage.

We have a condo complex that is similar to the Castlegate condos in Pasadena right here in Sacramento, and you're absolutely right about the improvements. Some of those condos are updated and look brand new, modern, while others still have the original carpeting, LOL, and therefore sell for much less. Buyers really need a condo expert when buying a condo to make sure they don't overpay, and that agent, absolutely, hands down in Pasadena is Michael Jacobs.
