Condition Rating
Excellent
Despite being built in 1946, the property has undergone a complete and modern renovation, as explicitly stated in the description and clearly visible in the images. The main house features a contemporary kitchen with white shaker cabinets, stainless steel appliances, and updated countertops, along with a modern bathroom showcasing new vanities, fixtures, and tiling. The dark hardwood flooring, fresh paint, and modern light fixtures throughout the main living areas and bedrooms contribute to its updated appeal. Furthermore, the permitted ADU appears newly built or extensively renovated with its own modern kitchenette and bathroom. These extensive updates mean all components are virtually new, meeting current quality standards with no deferred maintenance, aligning perfectly with an 'excellent' condition score.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Income Potential / Multi-Generational Living: Features a permitted 1-bedroom, 1-bath ADU, offering significant flexibility for rental income or accommodating extended family.
Prime Location & Accessibility: Situated in a 'PRIME area of Gardena' with walking distance to El Camino College, shopping, schools, and excellent freeway access (405, 105, 91).
Updated Main Residence: The main 3-bedroom, 1-bath house has been 'completely updated,' suggesting modern finishes and reduced immediate renovation needs.
Dedicated Two-Car Garage: Provides valuable off-street parking, storage, and potential for a workshop, enhancing property utility.
Strong Elementary School Ratings: Proximity to highly-rated elementary schools (e.g., One Hundred Fifty-Sixth Street Elementary School, Chapman Elementary School, both rated 8) is attractive to families.
Cons
Significant Overpricing: The listing price of $899,999 is substantially higher than the property's estimated value of $572,455.45, indicating a potential overvaluation of approximately 36%.
Older Original Construction: Built in 1946, the property's age may suggest underlying older infrastructure or systems not explicitly mentioned as updated, potentially leading to future maintenance concerns.
Limited Bathroom in Main House: The main 3-bedroom residence features only one bathroom, which could be a functional limitation for larger families or multiple occupants, despite the ADU's separate bathroom.
