Condition Rating
Fair
Built in 1954, the property is aged but described as 'well-maintained.' The kitchen, while functional, features very dated cabinets, a brick-faced range hood, and a yellow sink/backsplash, indicating it has not been updated in many decades. The flooring throughout is also dated patterned tile. While the backyard deck and plunge pool appear to be a more recent addition or well-kept, the interior, particularly the kitchen and likely the bathroom (not pictured but implied by the kitchen's condition), requires significant cosmetic updates to meet current standards. It is not in disrepair to warrant a 'poor' rating, but it is far from 'good' due to the outdated key areas.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Great Schools: Elementary School: Mountain Avenue Elementary School (9/10). Middle School: Rosemont Middle School (9/10). High School: Crescenta Valley High School (9/10).
Desirable Location: Nestled in the peaceful Tujunga foothills on a quiet street, this property is situated in one of Tujunga’s most desirable neighborhoods, offering convenience to nearby parks, hiking trails, and local shops.
Expansion Potential: The property features a spacious backyard with endless possibilities for gardening, relaxing, or future expansion, adding significant value and customization options.
Serene Mountain Views: Residents can enjoy serene mountain views, enhancing the property's aesthetic appeal and providing a tranquil living environment.
Well-Maintained Condition: Described as a 'well-maintained residence,' suggesting good upkeep and potentially fewer immediate repair concerns for a buyer.
Targeted Market Appeal: The home is perfectly positioned as an ideal starter home or downsizer’s dream, appealing to a specific and often active segment of the real estate market.
Cons
Significant Overpricing: The list price of $520,000 is 20% above the estimated property value of $412,068, and higher than comparable properties, indicating it may be overpriced for the current market.
Limited Size and Layout: With only 1 bedroom and 1 bathroom across 525 sqft, the property has a very limited appeal to a broader market, particularly families or those needing more space.
Lack of Explicit Modern Updates: While 'well-maintained,' the description does not mention recent renovations or modern updates to key areas like the kitchen or bathroom, which could mean older systems and finishes compared to updated comparable properties, potentially requiring immediate buyer investment.
