Despite being built in 1947, the property has undergone extensive and recent renovations, particularly evident in the kitchen and bathrooms. The kitchen features modern white shaker cabinets, pristine white quartz countertops, a subway tile backsplash, and new stainless steel appliances, indicating a very recent update. Bathrooms are also updated with modern floating vanities, vessel sinks, and contemporary fixtures. Throughout the main living areas and bedrooms, there are new-looking hardwood floors, modern tile, recessed lighting, and updated ceiling fans. The description also notes a 'recently built permitted ADU,' further supporting a comprehensive and recent overhaul of the property. All visible components appear new or virtually new, meeting current quality standards with no deferred maintenance.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Income & Multigenerational Potential: The recently built, permitted ADU (Accessory Dwelling Unit) offers excellent flexibility for supplemental rental income or accommodating multigenerational living arrangements, significantly enhancing the property's value and appeal.
Prime Westside Location: Situated in a highly desirable Mar Vista/Palms area, the property benefits from a quiet residential setting with convenient access to parks, schools, shopping, and major Westside transportation routes.
Versatile Appeal: The property's configuration and location make it highly attractive to a broad range of buyers, including large families seeking space and investors looking for income-generating assets.
Functional Layout & Outdoor Space: The main home features a functional layout with bright living spaces and comfortable room flow, complemented by usable outdoor space and mature trees, enhancing livability.
Strong School District Access: The property is located within reach of several well-rated public schools, including elementary and high schools with ratings up to 8, which is a significant draw for families.
Cons
MLS Listing Discrepancy: Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 5, other record bedroom count = 4.
Age of Main Structure: Built in 1947, the main home may require significant updates to its core systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical) or aesthetics to align with modern buyer expectations, as only the ADU is noted as 'recently built'.
Lack of Premium Views: While the property has a 'Neighborhood' view, it does not offer more sought-after panoramic views (e.g., ocean, city lights) that can command a higher premium in the competitive Los Angeles market.
Potential for Missing Modern Amenities: The description does not specify the presence of central air conditioning or other contemporary comfort systems in the main house, which could be a significant consideration for buyers in the Southern California climate.
