Listing
$1,750,000
Condition Rating
Poor
Built in 1932, this property is 92 years old. While the Spanish-style exterior retains its charm, the listing explicitly notes a 'likelihood of original or outdated infrastructure (e.g., plumbing, electrical, and potentially no central HVAC/AC),' which would necessitate 'future capital expenditures for modernization or repairs.' Without any interior images, it's highly probable that the kitchen and bathrooms are significantly outdated, requiring substantial renovation. The exterior image shows an aged roof and unkempt landscaping, further suggesting a lack of recent comprehensive updates. These factors indicate that the property requires substantial repairs and rehabilitation to meet modern living standards, aligning with the 'poor' condition criteria.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Architectural Charm & Curb Appeal: The authentic Spanish-style architecture, featuring arched entryways, stucco exterior, red-tile roof, and a charming covered front porch, offers significant curb appeal and timeless character.
Prime Faircrest Heights Location: Situated in the desirable Faircrest Heights area of Los Angeles, providing excellent access to local amenities, shopping, and major transportation routes.
Functional & Spacious Floor Plan: A single-story layout with 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms across 2041 sqft offers practical living space, appealing to various family sizes and needs.
Enhanced Privacy & Parking: Features like a gated entry, private courtyard, and a dedicated driveway leading to rear parking significantly enhance security, privacy, and convenience, a premium in urban settings.
Demonstrated Market Interest: The 'Active Under Contract' status indicates strong buyer demand and market acceptance, suggesting the property is well-positioned and attractive to prospective buyers.
Cons
MLS Listing Discrepancy: Lot size discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing lot size in square feet =2041, other record lot size in square feet = 7178.
Low Available Lot Utilization: The property has a small lot size, more than 70 percent of which is taken by its living area. lot size in square feet = 2041, living area = 2041.
Limited or Discrepant Lot Size: The reported lot size of 2041 sqft, identical to the living area, is highly unusual and suggests either a very small lot with minimal outdoor space or a data anomaly, which could deter buyers seeking larger yards.
Potential for System Updates: As a 1932-built home, there's a likelihood of original or outdated infrastructure (e.g., plumbing, electrical, and potentially no central HVAC/AC), which may necessitate future capital expenditures for modernization or repairs.
Absence of Desirable Views: The property explicitly states 'View: None,' which may be a drawback for buyers prioritizing scenic outlooks, a feature often valued in the Los Angeles market.
