Condition Rating
Excellent
Despite being built in 1944, this property has undergone a recent and extensive renovation. The kitchen features modern white shaker cabinets, dark countertops, stainless steel appliances, and subway tile backsplash. The bathrooms are similarly updated with new vanities, modern fixtures, and subway tile showers. The description notes 'new vinyl flooring' and a 'spacious open concept,' which are visible in the images. These significant updates bring the property's condition to a virtually new standard, aligning with the 'extensively renovated within 5 years' criteria for an excellent score.
Pros & Cons
Pros
ADU & Development Potential: The property offers significant value-add potential with room for two Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) and an additional area in the back garage, providing opportunities for rental income or expanded living space.
Exceptional Parking Capacity: A rare and highly desirable feature, the property boasts space for up to 14 cars, including dedicated parking for a motor home, catering to large families or car enthusiasts.
Desirable Location: Situated in one of Buena Park’s most sought-after neighborhoods, the property benefits from a strong location with excellent investment potential and community appeal.
Recent Interior Updates: The home features new vinyl flooring and an open-concept layout, providing a modern and refreshed interior that reduces immediate renovation needs for a new owner.
Generous Lot Size: With a spacious 6800 sq ft lot, there is ample outdoor space for recreation, landscaping, and supports the significant ADU and parking potential.
Cons
Significant Price Appreciation in Short Period: The property's listing price of $818,000 represents a substantial increase from its sale price of $658,000 in August 2024, which may raise questions about current market value and appraisal justification.
Compact Interior Square Footage: At 1008 sq ft for 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, the interior living space is quite compact, potentially leading to smaller room dimensions and limited communal areas.
Age of Property & Potential for Aging Systems: Built in 1944, the property's age suggests that core systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical, HVAC, roof) may be original or older, potentially requiring future maintenance or upgrades not explicitly detailed as completed.
