Condition Rating
Good
This property is move-in ready with extensive renovations. The kitchen features updated stainless steel appliances and granite countertops, though the mosaic backsplash and cabinet style are a bit dated for a 'virtually new' aesthetic. Bathrooms are modern with glass enclosures and updated vanities. Hardwood and tile flooring, recessed lighting, and crown molding throughout contribute to a high-quality finish. While the original build year is 1949, the significant updates make it a well-maintained home, fitting the 'Good' category for its comprehensive, yet not ultra-recent or full-system, renovation.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Prime Location: Situated in the highly desirable neighborhood of Valley Glen, just a block from Sherman Oaks, offering excellent access to amenities and a strong community feel.
Move-in Ready & Modern Updates: This beautifully remodeled and gated home features an updated kitchen with granite counters and stainless steel appliances, crown moldings, and recessed lighting throughout, making it move-in ready.
ADU/Investment Potential: Zoned R1.5, the property offers significant investment potential with the allowance for adding two additional units in the backyard, appealing to savvy investors or multi-generational families.
Versatile Bonus Space: The garage has been thoughtfully converted into a bonus room, game room, or guest unit with a full bath, providing flexible living space and added functionality.
Enhanced Master Suite & Outdoor Living: Features a large master bedroom with a walk-in closet and a master bath equipped with dual sinks, a shower, and a tub, complemented by a spacious backyard with numerous fruit trees.

Cons

Age of Property: Built in 1949, despite extensive remodeling, the underlying structure's age may imply potential for older systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical) that could require future maintenance or upgrades.
Lack of Scenic Views: The property explicitly states 'view: None,' which may be a disadvantage for buyers prioritizing scenic outlooks or panoramic vistas.
Zoning Verification Required: While offering ADU potential, the description notes 'buyers to verify' the R1.5 zoning for additional units, indicating that the process is not pre-approved or guaranteed, which could be a hurdle for development.
