Condition Rating
Fair

The property, built in 1960, has received recent cosmetic updates including fresh paint throughout and new laminate flooring in the living areas and some bedrooms. One bathroom has been tastefully updated with modern fixtures and subway tile. However, the kitchen remains significantly dated with original-style wood cabinets, older countertops, and tile flooring/backsplash. The second bathroom also features older-style floor tile, and one bedroom retains older white tile flooring and an outdated ceiling fan. While move-in ready and well-maintained, the outdated kitchen and mixed flooring styles indicate that major components show signs of being outdated, requiring substantial updates for a modern aesthetic, aligning with a 'Fair' condition.

Cons

Limited Cooling System: The property relies on a whole house fan for cooling, lacking central air conditioning which may be a significant drawback for comfort during warmer months in Southern California.
Age of Property & Potential for Older Infrastructure: Built in 1960, the home may have original or older plumbing, electrical, and other core systems that could require future maintenance or costly upgrades not explicitly addressed.
Price Reduction History: Multiple price reductions since the initial listing suggest potential market resistance or that the property may have been initially overpriced, which could impact buyer perception.
