Condition Rating
Good
The property, built in 1915, has undergone significant recent cosmetic renovations, making it move-in ready. The kitchen features new white shaker cabinets, modern laminate countertops, a subway tile backsplash (though incomplete), and a contemporary range hood. Both bathrooms have been updated with new vanities, modern fixtures, and subway tile surrounds. New light-colored laminate flooring is present throughout the main living areas and bedrooms. While the core structure is very old, these key areas (kitchen, bathrooms, flooring) appear to have been updated within the last 5-15 years, aligning with the 'Good' criteria for extensive renovation of critical components. However, the lack of information regarding major system updates (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) for a home of this age prevents an 'Excellent' rating, and the quality of some finishes (e.g., laminate countertops, incomplete backsplash) is not top-tier.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Move-in Ready Condition: The home is described as clean and in move-in condition, reducing immediate renovation costs for buyers.
Updated Kitchen: The kitchen features new white cabinets and nice countertops, offering a modern and appealing cooking space.
ADU Potential: A large backyard provides space for entertaining and the possibility of adding an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU), enhancing property value and potential rental income.
Enhanced Security: Wrought iron doors are installed for extra security, offering peace of mind for residents.
Ample Parking: A long driveway can accommodate several cars, a valuable asset in urban areas like Los Angeles.
Cons
Age of Property: Built in 1915, the property may have older infrastructure (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that could require future maintenance or upgrades not explicitly mentioned as completed.
Compact Living Space: With 1060 sqft for 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, the living space might feel compact, especially for a 'large family' as suggested in the description.
Lack of Mentioned Cooling System: The property description does not mention a cooling system (e.g., air conditioning), which could be a significant drawback during Los Angeles' warmer months.
