Condition Rating
Fair
Built in 1930, this property is over 90 years old. While described as 'well-maintained,' the advanced age strongly suggests that major systems and interior finishes, especially in the kitchen and bathrooms, are likely outdated, even if functional. The exterior images show a tidy but dated facade with older architectural elements and a visible wall/window AC unit, implying a lack of modern central cooling. Without interior photos, it's assumed the interior reflects the property's age, requiring minor updates to meet current quality standards and buyer preferences.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Income-Generating Duplex: The property features two separate homes on one lot (3B/2B and 1B/1B), offering significant rental income potential or flexible multi-generational living arrangements.
Prime Los Angeles Location: Situated in the 'heart of Los Angeles,' providing access to urban amenities, employment centers, and a strong rental market.
Well-Maintained Condition: Explicitly described as 'well-maintained,' suggesting reduced immediate repair needs and a move-in ready state for tenants or owners.
Versatile Living Arrangements: The distinct unit sizes (3-bedroom and 1-bedroom) cater to a broad range of occupants, from families to single renters or extended family members.
Generous Lot Size: A 6,702 sqft lot provides ample outdoor space, potential for landscaping, or future expansion opportunities (subject to zoning).
Cons
Advanced Age of Property: Built in 1930, the property may have aging infrastructure (plumbing, electrical, roof, foundation) that could require significant capital expenditures in the future, despite being 'well-maintained'.
Lack of Desirable Views: The property explicitly states 'None' for views, missing an opportunity for enhanced aesthetic appeal and potential value appreciation often found in Los Angeles.
Potentially Compact Living Spaces: With 1698 sqft divided between two units (3B/2B and 1B/1B), individual unit sizes might be considered modest, potentially limiting spaciousness, especially for the 3-bedroom unit.
