Condition Rating
Tear down
The property, built in 1952, is explicitly marketed as an 'ideal fixer or redevelopment opportunity,' with 'RTI plans a few weeks away for an extraordinary 13,500 SF estate.' This indicates that the value is solely in the land and its potential for redevelopment, not the existing structure. The kitchen, as shown in images, features highly dated dark wood cabinetry, parquet flooring, and older appliances, suggesting a renovation from 30-50 years ago, not recent. The existing residence is clearly intended for demolition rather than extensive renovation, aligning perfectly with the 'tear-down' criteria.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Exceptional Location: Situated in the highly coveted Brentwood Park, offering unparalleled access to upscale amenities like Brentwood Country Mart, San Vicente shops, and Montana Ave.
Substantial & Flat Lot: A rare, oversized 0.6-acre flat lot, providing ample space for a grand estate and enhancing property value in a dense urban area.
Approved Redevelopment Plans (RTI): Imminent 'Ready-To-Issue' plans for a 13,500 SF estate significantly de-risks and streamlines the development process for a luxury buyer.
Privacy and Exclusivity: Gated entrance and spacious motor court ensure privacy and an exclusive feel, appealing to high-net-worth individuals.
Legacy Investment Potential: Represents a unique opportunity to create a bespoke, generational estate in one of Los Angeles's most prestigious neighborhoods.
Cons
Current Structure Requires Major Investment: The existing 1952 residence is described as a 'fixer or redevelopment opportunity,' indicating it's not move-in ready and requires substantial capital for renovation or demolition.
High Entry Price Point: The $14.995 million list price targets a very niche market, potentially limiting the pool of immediate buyers.
Extensive Construction Project Required: Despite RTI plans, the property requires a buyer willing and able to undertake a large-scale, multi-year construction project to realize its full potential.
