Condition Rating
Fair
The property, built in 1922, boasts a 'timeless and serene luxury' with 'elegant archways and rich finishes,' suggesting aesthetic upkeep or renovations. However, the listing explicitly notes a 'Lack of Explicit Modern System Upgrades' for HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and roof. While cosmetically appealing, the major systems are likely outdated and will require future capital expenditures, aligning with a 'Fair' condition where major components are functional but show signs of being outdated, requiring minor updates or repairs.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Prime Hollywood Hills Location: Elevated above the city in the infamous Hollywood Hills, the property offers a prestigious address, privacy, and convenient access to the vibrant Sunset Strip, appealing to a luxury lifestyle buyer.
Timeless Mediterranean Architecture: The exquisite Mediterranean estate embodies timeless and serene luxury, featuring elegant archways, rich finishes, and sweeping open spaces, which are highly sought after in this market.
Panoramic City Views: The property boasts fabulous panoramic city views, a premium amenity in the Hollywood Hills that significantly enhances desirability and value.
Resort-Style Backyard with Pool: A true sanctuary, the resort-style backyard complete with a shimmering pool provides exceptional outdoor living and entertaining space, a key feature for luxury properties.
Spacious Interior Living: With 2720 sqft, the 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom residence offers generous interior living space, exceeding the square footage of several recently sold comparable properties in the immediate area.
Cons
Significant Overpricing: The current list price of $3.3 million is substantially higher than the estimated property value of $2.479 million (a 24% difference) and recent comparable sales, potentially limiting buyer interest and extending market time.
Lack of Explicit Modern System Upgrades: While aesthetically curated, the property description does not detail recent major system upgrades (e.g., HVAC, plumbing, electrical, roof) that buyers often expect in luxury homes of this 1922 vintage, potentially implying future capital expenditures.
Competitive Market Positioning: Compared to recently sold properties in the area, such as a gut-renovated Spanish Revival with ADU potential that sold for $2.875 million, the subject property's higher price point without explicit mention of similar comprehensive modernizations may make it less competitive.
