This 1937 Spanish Hacienda-style home boasts well-maintained original architectural elements and hardwood floors, along with some contemporary upgrades like plantation shutters. However, the kitchen features a 'vintage stove and oven' and dated tile countertops, while the bathrooms, particularly the green-tiled one, are clean but significantly outdated in style and fixtures. The property is functional and well-kept but requires substantial updates to the kitchen and bathrooms to meet modern aesthetic and functional standards. The absence of central air conditioning is also a factor for a home of this age in Los Angeles.
