About this home
BOM! First time on the market in 62 years, this mostly flat, .623 acre property is nestled on its own private drive off of lower Mandeville Canyon. Quiet and serene, the mature lush landscaping surrounds this traditional ranch home and creates a compound-worthy estate. Grandfathered setbacks offer incredible entitlements and the existing home allows easy financing for added construction. Renovate, rebuild, or add to this incredible property. With parking for multiple cars, and the land to expand, this property is ready to be built back into a dream estate. Updated survey is available upon request. Zoned for horses as well. Buyer to check specifics with city as to where a possible stable may be built. This is a rare opportunity for an owner / builder or developer. Easy to see existing vacant home.

Condition Rating
Poor
Built in 1952 and on the market for the first time in 62 years, this property clearly requires substantial repairs and rehabilitation. The interior images, particularly the kitchen, show extremely dated features including dark wood cabinetry, old tile countertops and backsplash, patterned flooring, and an older built-in oven. The living areas also feature outdated carpets, wallpaper, and dark wood trim. The listing description itself states the property is an opportunity to 'Renovate, rebuild, or add to' and that it 'requires significant renovation or a complete rebuild,' indicating it is far from move-in ready and would be very uncomfortable to live in its current state by modern standards. The property's value is heavily tied to its land and development potential, rather than the existing structure's condition.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Development Potential: The property offers significant development potential with grandfathered setbacks and entitlements, making it ideal for an owner/builder or developer to renovate, rebuild, or expand into a dream estate.
Expansive & Private Lot: A mostly flat, .623-acre lot nestled on its own private drive, surrounded by mature landscaping, provides exceptional privacy and the feel of a compound-worthy estate in a prime location.
Prime Location: Located in the highly desirable 'Lower Mandeville' area of Los Angeles (90049 Brentwood), offering prestige and access to a sought-after neighborhood.
Equestrian Zoning: The property is zoned for horses, presenting a unique and valuable amenity for equestrian enthusiasts, though specific stable placement requires buyer verification.
Rare Market Opportunity: Being offered for the first time in 62 years, this property represents a rare and exclusive opportunity for long-term investment or custom development.
Cons
Age and Condition of Existing Structure: Built in 1952, the existing traditional ranch home is likely dated and requires significant renovation or a complete rebuild, indicating it is not a turn-key property.
Overpriced Relative to Market Estimate: The current listing price is approximately 5% higher than the property's estimated value, which may present a challenge in attracting buyers seeking immediate equity or fair market value.
History of Price Reductions: Multiple price reductions from the original list price suggest market resistance and a potential overvaluation at initial listing, indicating a need for careful pricing strategy.
