Condition Rating
Poor
Built in 1947, this property requires substantial rehabilitation. The kitchen is extremely dated, missing all major appliances, and needs a complete renovation. While hardwood floors are present, the overall condition of the kitchen and likely the single bathroom (inferred from age and kitchen state) suggests significant updates are needed. The home lacks central HVAC, relying on a wall heater and window AC unit, and other systems are likely original or minimally updated, making it uncomfortable and requiring extensive investment to meet modern standards.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Prime Location: Highly desirable North Montebello location in a peaceful, sought-after neighborhood with excellent access to schools, parks, dining, retail, and major freeways (60 & 605).
Development Potential: Large 6,346 sqft lot offers significant upside for adding an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) or expanding the existing home, increasing future value and utility.
Classic Charm: Charming 3-bedroom home featuring classic hardwood floors, adding character and appeal that many buyers appreciate.
Ample Parking: Includes an extended driveway and a detached 2-car garage, providing generous off-street parking and valuable storage solutions.
Walkability & Amenities: Situated within a short walk to La Merced School, Grant Rea Park, Montebello Blvd dining/retail, and near Montebello Town Center & Monterey Park Marketplace eateries.
Cons
Limited Bathrooms: The property features only one bathroom for a three-bedroom home, which may not meet the needs of larger families or modern buyer expectations, potentially requiring future renovation.
Age of Property: Built in 1947, the home is older, suggesting potential for outdated systems (e.g., electrical, plumbing, HVAC) and a need for significant updates beyond cosmetic changes.
Smaller Interior Footprint: At 1104 sqft, the interior living space is relatively modest for a 3-bedroom home, which might feel constrained for some buyers, especially given the larger lot size.
