Condition Rating
Good
The property, built in 1941, has undergone recent and tasteful renovations to the kitchen and bathrooms, including new kitchen cabinets, and fresh interior and exterior paint, making it move-in ready. While these key areas are updated to a modern standard, the overall age of the home suggests that some underlying systems may still be older, and the listing does not specify the condition of the HVAC system. The provided images only show the exterior, which appears well-maintained but with unkempt landscaping. The recent renovations prevent a 'Fair' score, but the age and lack of comprehensive system updates prevent an 'Excellent' score.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Great Schools: Elementary School: Farragut Elementary School (9/10).
Recent Renovations: The property boasts recently remodeled kitchen and bathrooms, along with fresh interior and exterior paint, ensuring a modern and move-in ready living space.
Generous Living Space: With 5 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, 2706 sqft of living area, and a formal dining room, this home offers substantial space for families and entertaining.
Prime Los Angeles Location: Situated in a desirable Los Angeles neighborhood (90008, Mid Los Angeles), offering a sought-after address with potential for appreciation.
Detached Two-Car Garage: A valuable asset in an urban environment, providing secure parking and additional storage capacity.
Strategic Price Reduction: A recent price adjustment from $1.55M to $1.475M positions the property competitively and may signal an attractive buying opportunity.
Cons
Property Age: Constructed in 1941, the home's age, despite recent cosmetic updates, may suggest underlying older infrastructure or potential for future maintenance requirements.
Unspecified HVAC System: The listing description does not explicitly mention a central cooling system, which could be a significant consideration for comfort during warmer months in Los Angeles.
Variable Local School Performance: While some schools are well-regarded, several nearby public schools exhibit lower performance ratings, which could be a factor for families prioritizing top-tier public education.
