Condition Rating
Fair
The property, built in 1936, has received some functional upgrades such as a tankless water heater, updated electrical (12/3 EMT), and ethernet wiring, indicating regular upkeep. However, the absence of central air conditioning (evidenced by visible window AC units) and, critically, the complete lack of images for the kitchen and bathroom suggest these key areas are likely outdated or in need of cosmetic renovation. While the visible areas appear maintained, the omission of kitchen and bathroom photos prevents a higher score, as these are primary indicators of a property's overall condition and style. The home is functional but would require minor updates to meet current aesthetic and comfort standards in critical areas.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Great Schools: Elementary School: Marengo Elementary School (9/10). Middle School: South Pasadena Middle School (9/10). High School: South Pasadena Senior High School (9/10).
Recent Upgrades & Modern Amenities: The property has been significantly upgraded, featuring a tankless water heater, updated electrical (12/3 EMT), cable and Ethernet wired rooms, outdoor motion sensor security floodlights, and a heated/humidity-sensing bathroom, enhancing comfort and functionality.
Open Concept Living: An open floor plan seamlessly connects the living room, dining area, and kitchen, creating a more spacious and contemporary feel despite the property's modest square footage.
Private & Pet-Friendly Outdoor Space: The rear patio and front gardens are secured by a 4'-8' high perimeter fence and gates, offering excellent privacy and a safe environment for pets.
Desirable City Location: Situated in a 'Good Location in City' within Alhambra, providing convenient access to local amenities and services.
Proximity to Highly-Rated Schools: The property is located near several well-regarded schools, including Park Elementary (7/10, 0.11 miles) and Alhambra High (7/10, 0.64 miles), which is attractive for families.
Cons
Limited Living Space: With only 1 bedroom and 592 sqft, the property offers very limited living space, which may restrict its appeal to a broad range of buyers, particularly larger families.
Small Lot Size: The lot size of 2148 sqft is relatively small for a single-family residence, offering minimal outdoor area beyond the fenced gardens and limiting potential for significant expansion.
Age of Property: Built in 1936, the property's age, despite recent upgrades, may present concerns regarding the condition of original structural elements or require ongoing maintenance typical of older homes.
