Condition Rating
Poor
Built in 1901, this property is over 120 years old. The listing explicitly notes 'Age and Potential Renovation Costs' and states it 'likely requires significant investment for modern system upgrades (e.g., plumbing, electrical, HVAC) and cosmetic renovations to meet contemporary standards.' The absence of interior photos, particularly for the kitchen and bathrooms, strongly suggests these areas are original or severely outdated, necessitating substantial rehabilitation. The exterior, while appearing structurally sound, shows signs of age and deferred maintenance in the landscaping. This property requires significant investment to bring it to modern living standards, aligning with the 'poor' condition criteria.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Prime Location: Located in the 'heart of Mid Wilshire K-Town,' offering excellent access to vibrant amenities, dining, entertainment, and cultural attractions in a highly desirable Los Angeles neighborhood.
Historic Character: Built in 1901, the property possesses inherent historic charm and architectural character, appealing to buyers seeking a home with unique heritage.
Generous Lot Size: A substantial 5906 sqft lot provides ample outdoor space for landscaping, potential expansion, or creating a private urban retreat.
Access to Quality Schools: Proximity to several highly-rated public schools, including Hoover Street Elementary (rating 8) and Foshay Learning Center (rating 5), enhances its appeal for families.
Potential for Views: The property is noted as having a 'view,' which can significantly add to its desirability and overall value in the Los Angeles market.
Cons
Age and Potential Renovation Costs: As a 1901 build, the property likely requires significant investment for modern system upgrades (e.g., plumbing, electrical, HVAC) and cosmetic renovations to meet contemporary standards.
High Price Per Square Foot: The list price of $1.17 million for 1260 sqft translates to a high price per square foot ($928/sqft), which may limit the buyer pool or suggest a premium for the land/location rather than the existing structure.
Limited Property Details: The brief description lacks specific details on recent renovations, interior condition, or finishes, suggesting potential for unforeseen costs or immediate improvements upon purchase.
