Condition Rating
Good
This 1929 Spanish-style home is described as 'beautifully restored' and 'move-in ready,' which is largely supported by the images. The kitchen is extensively renovated with modern blue shaker cabinets, white quartz countertops, a stylish patterned backsplash, and new black and white floor tiles, along with modern gold fixtures and recessed lighting. One of the bathrooms is also fully updated with contemporary hexagonal tiles, a new vanity, and black fixtures. The original hardwood floors throughout the living areas and bedrooms are beautifully restored. However, the second bathroom retains a very dated, vintage yellow and black tile scheme with older fixtures, preventing an 'Excellent' rating. While this bathroom appears clean and functional, it is not aligned with the recent, high-quality renovations seen elsewhere. The property is in good overall condition with significant recent updates, but not every component is new or virtually new.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Historic Spanish-Style Charm: This beautifully restored 1920s Spanish-style home retains significant historic character with original hardwood floors, sunburst ironwork, art deco woodwork, exposed beams, and a pink marble fireplace.
Move-in Ready Condition: The property is explicitly described as 'move-in ready,' indicating that it is well-maintained and requires no immediate major renovations for occupancy.
Desirable Leimert Park Location: Located in the historic Leimert Park neighborhood, the property offers walkability to local restaurants and shops, enhancing its lifestyle appeal and community integration.
Versatile Bonus Space Potential: The oversized garage presents a significant opportunity for conversion into an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU), home office, gym, or additional living space, adding future value.
Flexible Financing Option: The owner's willingness to carry a 1st Trust Deed offers a unique and potentially attractive financing alternative for prospective buyers, which can broaden the buyer pool.
Cons
Recently Sold Property: The property was recently sold within the past year on 2025-08-26. The sold price is $1,100,000.00.
Significant Price Discrepancy: The current list price of $1,199,000 is substantially higher than the property's estimated value of $773,338.845 (an estimation ratio of -35%), suggesting potential overpricing relative to market valuations.
Limited Modern Comforts: While restored, the description emphasizes historic features and does not mention key modern amenities such as central air conditioning, which could be a drawback in Los Angeles' climate.
Suboptimal Local School Ratings: The closest elementary and middle schools (Forty-Second Street Elementary and Audubon Middle) have lower ratings (2 out of 10), which may deter buyers prioritizing top-tier public education.
