In my opinion moving the mess into a Property or a Method is not that bad an idea. That way it is self contained and your main logic where you do the if(..) check becomes more readable. Especially if the list of conditions to check is huge, it is better off being in a property, that way if you need to re-use that you are not duplicating that check.
if(IsAllowed)
{
DoSomethingInteresting();
}
