Condition Rating
Fair
The property, built in 1900, has undergone significant functional updates such as central air/heat and copper plumbing, and features solid hardwood floors throughout. The kitchen is described as 'updated' with granite countertops and maple cabinets, which appears functional and well-maintained, though the white dishwasher and overall style suggest a renovation from 15-25 years ago rather than a recent modern update. At least one bathroom visible in the images features a clawfoot tub and older tiling, indicating it has not been recently renovated to contemporary standards. While move-in ready, the home's aesthetic, particularly in the bathrooms and some kitchen elements, shows signs of being outdated and would benefit from minor cosmetic updates to align with current trends.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Development & Income Potential: The LAR3 zoning on a large corner lot, coupled with an existing attached junior ADU and the possibility to add another ADU, presents significant development and income-generating opportunities.
Prime Koreatown Location: Located in the vibrant and centrally-located Koreatown neighborhood, offering excellent access to amenities, cultural attractions, and strong rental demand.
Key Modern Upgrades: The property benefits from essential modern upgrades including Central Air/Heat, copper plumbing, solid hardwood floors, and an updated kitchen with granite countertops and maple cabinets.
Generous Corner Lot: An over 7000 sq ft corner lot provides ample space, enhanced privacy, and flexibility for landscaping or potential future expansion.
Architectural Charm: The home exhibits 'Italian charm with amazing curb appeal,' contributing to its unique character and aesthetic appeal.
Cons
Overpricing Indication: The listing price of $1.39M is significantly higher than the estimated property value of approximately $1.05M, suggesting it may be overpriced relative to current market algorithms.
Age of Property: Built in 1900, the property's age, despite updates, may imply potential for unforeseen maintenance issues or the need for further structural investments in the long term.
Bed/Bath Count Discrepancy: There is an inconsistency between the property description (4 bed + 2 bath home + 2 bed 1 bath junior ADU) and the structured data (beds:3 baths:2), which requires clarification for potential buyers.
