Condition Rating
Poor
Built in 1992, this property is 32 years old and shows significant signs of age and lack of major renovations. The kitchen features very dated tile countertops, old cabinets, and outdated lighting and appliances, requiring a full remodel. Both bathrooms also appear very dated with old vanities, countertops, and shower enclosures, indicating a need for substantial rehabilitation. While the property appears livable, the condition of these key areas necessitates considerable investment to modernize, aligning with the 'poor' category's requirement for substantial repairs and rehabilitation.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Flexible Floor Plan: The property offers a versatile layout with one bedroom downstairs and a den that can be utilized as an additional bedroom, accommodating various living arrangements or home office needs.
Desirable Neighborhood: Located in a 'nice area of Bell Gardens,' suggesting a stable and appealing community for potential homeowners.
Spacious Living Area: Features a spacious living room with a fireplace, providing a comfortable and inviting space for relaxation and entertaining.
Relatively Modern Construction: Built in 1992, the home is newer than many properties in the region, potentially indicating better structural integrity and fewer immediate major system concerns compared to much older homes.
Single-Family Residence: As a single-family home, it offers privacy and land ownership, which is highly desirable for many buyers.
Cons
Limited Lot Size: The lot size of 3322 sqft is relatively small for a single-family home, which may limit outdoor living space and future expansion possibilities.
Lack of Mentioned Updates: The description does not highlight recent renovations or modern upgrades to key areas like the kitchen or bathrooms, which might be expected for a 1992 build and could require future investment.
No Scenic View: The property explicitly states 'View: None,' which could be a drawback for buyers prioritizing scenic outlooks or premium views.
