Pros & Cons

Pros

Dual Residences & Income Potential: The property features two distinct homes on one lot: a completely reimagined main residence and a newly built ADU, offering exceptional flexibility for multi-generational living, guest accommodations, or significant rental income.
Extensive Modern Renovation: Both residences have undergone comprehensive modern updates, including a brand new roof, new electrical panels, new AC units, top-quality Andersen windows/sliding doors, and a newly stamped concrete driveway, ensuring a move-in ready experience with minimal immediate maintenance.
Gourmet Chef's Kitchen: The main residence boasts a true gourmet chef’s kitchen, highlighted by a large center island, stainless-steel appliances, luxurious Carrera marble countertops, and custom cabinetry, ideal for entertaining and daily living.
Luxurious Primary Suite: The primary suite offers a private retreat with a generously sized layout, fireplace, custom-built walk-in closet, and a spa-inspired en-suite bathroom featuring a glass-enclosed shower, providing a high level of comfort and luxury.
Outdoor Entertainment Paradise: The exterior is designed as an entertainer’s dream, complete with a stylish pergola, a custom-built outdoor kitchen island (BBQ grill, fridge, double side burner, sink, bar seating), and a built-in fire-pit, perfect for al fresco dining and relaxation.

Cons

Lack of Views: The property description explicitly states 'view: None', which may be a drawback for buyers seeking scenic vistas, especially in a location where views can often command a premium.
Significant Price Reduction: The property has seen a substantial price reduction from its original list price of $2,495,000 to $2,200,000, which could raise questions for potential buyers regarding market interest or initial overpricing.
High School District: The property is listed under the 'Los Angeles Unified' high school district. For families specifically seeking the local Sierra Madre school district, this could be perceived as a less desirable attribute.
