Condition Rating
Tear down
Built in 1921, this property is over 100 years old and shows no evidence of major renovations in the past 50 years. The MLS description explicitly states it 'is in need of TLC and remodeling' and is an 'ideal value-add investment,' implying extensive work is required. The images confirm this: both kitchens feature extremely outdated cabinets, worn countertops, old appliances, and dirty flooring, requiring complete replacement. The bathrooms are equally dilapidated, with one showing a boarded-up window, indicating significant defects. The overall condition, including old flooring and lack of central HVAC (window AC units visible), suggests the property is unlivable in its current state and its value is primarily in the land for redevelopment, aligning with a 'tear-down' assessment.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Duplex/Income Property: This property is explicitly marketed as a duplex, offering a significant opportunity for rental income or multi-generational living in a high-demand market.
Prime Los Angeles Location: Situated in a 'Prime Los Angeles Location' within a well-established neighborhood, providing convenient access to major freeways, shopping, dining, and employment centers.
Significant Value-Add Potential: Described as having 'tremendous potential' and 'solid bones,' making it an ideal 'value-add investment' for buyers willing to undertake remodeling and upgrades.
Generous Living Space: With 2,354 sq ft, 6 bedrooms, and 3 bathrooms across two units, the property offers substantial living space suitable for large families or multiple tenants.
Excellent School Proximity: The property boasts exceptional proximity to local schools, including Harmony Elementary (0.19 miles) and George Washington Carver Middle School (0.14 miles).
Cons
Extensive Renovation Required: The property 'is in need of TLC and remodeling,' indicating that significant financial investment and effort will be required to bring it to modern standards.
Age of Property: Built in 1921, the property is over a century old, which may lead to higher maintenance costs, outdated systems, and potential for unforeseen structural or infrastructure issues.
Lower-Rated Local Schools: Despite excellent proximity, the closest elementary (Harmony Elementary, rating 2) and middle schools (George Washington Carver Middle School, rating 3) have relatively low ratings, which could be a deterrent for some families.
