Condition Rating
Fair
Built in 1912, this property has received recent cosmetic updates including new paint and hardwood floors throughout, and a modern kitchen with white shaker cabinets, dark countertops, subway tile backsplash, and stainless steel appliances. However, at least one bathroom is significantly dated with old-style tiles, fixtures, and an unfinished appearance on the walls, requiring immediate updates or completion. While the living areas and kitchen are move-in ready, the dated and seemingly incomplete bathroom prevents it from being classified as 'Good' as it requires minor updates/repairs to be fully functional and aesthetically consistent.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Prime Location: Strategically located adjacent to Downtown Los Angeles, Silverlake, Mid-Wilshire, and Hancock Park, offering excellent access to major urban centers and desirable neighborhoods.
Broad Market Appeal: Positioned as a great investment opportunity or a primary residence for first-time buyers, appealing to a wide range of potential purchasers.
Move-in Ready Condition: Features new paint and hardwood floors, suggesting the property is in a 'just move right in' condition, reducing immediate renovation needs for buyers.
Spacious Backyard with Potential: Boasts a huge backyard with a variety of fruit trees and alley access, providing ample outdoor space and potential for future expansion or an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU).
Desirable Interior Features: The property offers an open floor plan and hardwood floors, which are highly sought-after features contributing to a modern and inviting living space.
Cons
Property Age & Potential System Updates: Built in 1912, the property's age suggests that major systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical, HVAC, roof) may be original or require significant updates, potentially leading to unforeseen costs.
Significant Price Increase: The list price has increased substantially from its original listing ($1.199M to $1.499M), which could raise questions about its current market value and potentially deter buyers.
Lack of Detailed Renovation Information: While cosmetic updates are mentioned, the description lacks specific details on major renovations to key areas like the kitchen or bathrooms, which are often expected in a property of this age and price point.
