Pros & Cons

Pros

Panoramic Canyon Vistas: The property offers stunning panoramic canyon, hills, and mountain views from floor-to-ceiling windows, the primary suite, and outdoor entertaining areas, significantly enhancing its appeal.
Exquisitely Remodeled Smart Home: Meticulously upgraded as a 'Hollywood Hills smart home,' it features a sophisticated blend of modern comfort with high-end finishes like white oak floors, quartz countertops, custom cabinetry, professional-grade appliances, security cameras, and a surround sound system.
Prime Location & Top-Rated School Access: Situated in prime Laurel Canyon, the home offers convenient access to the Sunset Strip and Ventura Blvd, and is located near the highly desirable Wonderland Elementary School (rated 9, 0.14 miles away).
Luxurious Primary Suite & Multiple En-suites: The property boasts a 'hotel-style primary suite' with dual walk-in closets and a spa-like ensuite bathroom featuring a double vanity, shower, and sumptuous bathtub with views. It also includes multiple additional en-suite bedrooms for comfort and privacy.

Cons

Original Construction Year (1947): Despite extensive remodeling, the property's original build year of 1947 may raise concerns about underlying infrastructure (e.g., plumbing, electrical, foundation) not explicitly mentioned as fully updated, potentially leading to future maintenance or higher insurance costs.
Automated Valuation Discrepancy: The automated property estimation value is significantly lower than the current listing price (-29%), which could indicate a potential overpricing by market standards or challenge in justifying the price to some buyers or lenders, despite unique features.
Absence of Explicit Central Air Conditioning: While described as a 'smart home,' the listing does not explicitly mention a central air conditioning system, which is a standard expectation for luxury properties in Los Angeles, potentially impacting comfort during warmer months.
