Condition Rating
Poor
Built in 1925, this duplex features highly outdated kitchens and bathrooms in both units, characterized by older white appliances, laminate countertops, and dated flooring and fixtures. While the property appears structurally maintained, the critical interior spaces require substantial rehabilitation to meet current living standards. The age of the property strongly suggests that major systems (electrical, plumbing, HVAC) are likely original or very old and would require significant updates, aligning with the 'Poor' condition criteria for properties needing substantial repairs and rehabilitation.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Income-Generating Duplex: The property offers two separate units, each with 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom, providing immediate rental income potential or flexible owner-occupancy options.
Prime Urban Location: Situated in Historic Jefferson Park, the property boasts excellent proximity to USC, Freeway 10, and Downtown Los Angeles, ensuring high rental demand and convenient access to key urban amenities and employment centers.
Historic Neighborhood Appeal: Located in the established and historic Jefferson Park, the property benefits from a desirable neighborhood with potential for architectural character and long-term appreciation.
Generous Lot Size: A substantial 6,757 sqft lot provides valuable outdoor space, offering potential for landscaping enhancements, outdoor living areas, or future expansion possibilities.
Strong School Proximity: The property is located near several highly-rated public schools, including Virginia Road Elementary (rated 5) and Foshay Learning Center (rated 5), enhancing its appeal to families.
Cons
Advanced Age of Property: Built in 1925, the property is nearly a century old, which likely implies a need for significant updates to major systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) and potential for deferred maintenance.
Potential for Extensive Renovation: The description provides no details on the interior condition or recent upgrades, suggesting that both units may require substantial renovation to modernize and maximize rental income, incurring significant upfront capital.
Undisclosed Parking Situation: For a duplex in a dense urban area like Los Angeles, the absence of any mention of dedicated parking (garage, driveway, or off-street) is a notable omission and could be a significant inconvenience for tenants or owners.
