Condition Rating
Excellent
Despite being built in 1955, this property has undergone an extensive and very recent renovation. The kitchen features new white shaker cabinets, dark modern countertops, and stainless steel appliances, all in excellent condition. Both bathrooms are fully updated with modern vanities, dark countertops, contemporary fixtures, and glass shower enclosures. The entire interior boasts new light-colored flooring, fresh white paint, and modern light fixtures, including recessed lighting. The property appears virtually new and move-in ready, meeting current quality standards with no visible deferred maintenance.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Prime Torrance Location: Situated in Torrance, a highly desirable Southern California city known for its quality of life, amenities, and strong community.
Excellent School Access: Located within the reputable Torrance Unified School District, with multiple highly-rated schools (e.g., North High School, Edison Elementary) in close proximity.
Ample Living Space: Offers a desirable 4-bedroom layout and 1542 sqft, providing flexible and comfortable living arrangements for families.
Established Single-Family Residence: As a 1955-built single-family home, it likely resides in a mature, well-developed neighborhood, often associated with larger lots and a strong sense of community.
Strong Market Area: Torrance generally exhibits a robust real estate market with consistent demand and potential for property value appreciation.
Cons
Lack of Scenic Views: The property explicitly states 'None' for views, which may be a drawback for buyers seeking panoramic or desirable outlooks.
Potentially Overpriced: The current listing price of $1.25M is 4% above the estimated property value and significantly higher than recent sales history, suggesting a potential overvaluation in the current market.
Age of Property: Built in 1955, the home may require substantial updates, renovations, or maintenance to meet modern aesthetic preferences and functional standards, potentially incurring additional costs for a buyer.
