Condition Rating
Excellent
Despite being built in 1966, this property has undergone extensive, high-quality renovations that bring it to a virtually new standard. The kitchen features high-end Jenn-Air stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and a modern farmhouse sink. Both bathrooms, especially the master, are luxuriously updated with floor-to-ceiling tiling, glass enclosures, modern vanities, and high-end fixtures like dual shower heads and a soaking tub. The property also boasts a new roof, an energy-efficient tankless hot water heater, and modern large-format tile flooring throughout, along with recessed lighting and updated fireplaces. While the absence of central air conditioning is noted, the overall condition, quality of materials, and recent major system upgrades (roof, water heater) firmly place this property in the 'excellent' category for its renovated state.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Desirable Location & Panoramic Views: Situated in the highly sought-after Mount Washington community, offering territorial and stunning sunset views, with proximity to key LA neighborhoods and a highly-rated elementary school.
Gourmet Chef's Kitchen: Features a fully loaded kitchen with high-end Jenn-Air stainless steel appliances, including a 6-burner gas stove, double oven, industrial hood, and beverage fridge.
Expansive & Productive Outdoor Space: Boasts a rare quarter-acre, fully usable and fenced backyard with mature landscaping, privacy hedges, and a producing orchard.
Flexible Living Spaces: Includes a detached studio with conversion potential (living space, office, gym) and a lower-level bonus room that can be converted into a fourth bedroom with a kitchenette and full bath.
Key Modern Upgrades & Amenities: Benefits from a new roof, energy-efficient tankless hot water heater, Ring security system, and a rare two-car garage, alongside a luxurious master suite.

Cons

Multiple Price Reductions: The property has undergone significant price reductions from its original listing, potentially indicating an initial overvaluation or challenges in market appeal at higher price points.
Absence of Central Air Conditioning: The property description does not mention a cooling system, which could be a significant drawback for buyers in the Los Angeles climate.
Potential for Older Infrastructure: Built in 1966, despite recent cosmetic and system upgrades (roof, water heater), other core infrastructure like plumbing or electrical systems may still be original or require further inspection/updates.
