Condition Rating
Good

This property, built in 1938, has undergone significant and tasteful renovations, making it move-in ready. The main kitchen features remodeled maple cabinetry, modern countertops, a wine cooler, and a charming vintage range, blending classic and contemporary styles effectively. The accessory building boasts a very modern kitchen with flat-panel oak cabinetry and stainless steel appliances, along with a modern full bathroom. While the main house bathrooms appear updated (e.g., jetted tub), the overall aesthetic is clean and functional. Hardwood floors, recessed lighting, and well-maintained outdoor spaces contribute to a high quality. However, the property's age (1938) and the noted absence of central air conditioning (relying on ocean breezes) prevent it from reaching an 'Excellent' score, as it's not 'virtually new' in all major systems or amenities. It fits the 'Good' category as a well-maintained home with recent updates, but not a full, top-to-bottom renovation within the last 5 years.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Exceptional Accessory Building: A large, steel-reinforced, two-story accessory building (1000+ sqft) with a full bathroom, bonus kitchen, wine cooler, and sound system offers immense versatility for guests, office, studio, or potential rental income.
Prime Mar Vista Location: Situated on a quiet residential street in a desirable Mar Vista neighborhood, offering convenient access to local shops, restaurants, and enjoying temperate ocean breezes.
Private & Amenity-Rich Outdoor Living: The generous 5,974 sqft lot features a private garden, gas fire pit, water fountain, large covered rear deck, and a spa tub, creating an ideal space for relaxation and entertaining.
Updated Interior with Unique Charm: The main home blends classic elegance with modern amenities, including a remodeled kitchen with maple cabinetry and a unique 1950s vintage range, maintaining a charming and well-maintained aesthetic.
Spacious Primary Suite with Balcony: The upstairs primary bedroom suite provides a tranquil retreat with sliding doors and a private balcony overlooking the serene rear yard.

Cons

Recently Sold Property: The property was recently sold within the past year on 2025-09-04. The sold price is $2,260,000.00.
Lack of Central Air Conditioning: The property description emphasizes 'ocean breezes' but does not mention a cooling system, which could be a significant comfort concern during hotter periods for some buyers.
Age of Property (1938): While updated, the 1938 build year may suggest potential for older underlying infrastructure (e.g., plumbing, electrical) that might require future attention, despite cosmetic renovations.
No Significant Views: The property explicitly states 'view: None,' which could be a disadvantage in a coastal Los Angeles neighborhood where ocean or city views often command a premium.
