Condition Rating
Excellent
Despite being built in 1962, this property has undergone extensive and high-quality renovations, as explicitly stated by 'new kitchen,' 'new Marvin windows,' 'new Marble flooring,' and 'new walnut flooring.' The kitchen features modern stainless steel appliances (double oven, double-drawer dishwasher, range hood, refrigerator), recessed lighting, and high-end finishes. Bathrooms are also updated with quality materials, though some stylistic choices like the brass shower frame and dolphin etching are a bit dated. The property is in move-in ready condition with virtually new components, meeting current quality standards, and shows no signs of deferred maintenance.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Extensive Modern Renovations: The property boasts a new kitchen, new Marvin windows, crown moldings, new marble and walnut flooring, and a new driveway, indicating significant recent investment and a move-in ready condition.
Prime North Montebello Location: Situated in a highly sought-after area of North Montebello, suggesting strong neighborhood appeal and potential for value retention.
Desirable City Skyline Views: Offers beautiful views of the downtown skyline, a premium feature that enhances desirability and market value.
Access to Top-Rated Schools: Located near highly-rated schools such as Wilcox Elementary (5/5) and Schurr High School (5/5), making it attractive for families.
High-Quality Interior Finishes: Features stylish and elaborately done new marble and walnut flooring throughout, reflecting a commitment to premium aesthetics and durability.
Cons
Original Construction Age: Built in 1962, the property's underlying structure is over 60 years old, which may raise concerns about the condition of unmentioned core systems (e.g., foundation, original plumbing, electrical) if not fully updated during renovations.
Limited Information on Core System Upgrades: While cosmetic and visible upgrades are detailed, the description lacks specifics on updates to major systems like HVAC, full plumbing, or electrical, which could lead to unforeseen future expenses for an older home.
Significant Sales History Discrepancy: A recorded sale price of $125,000 in 2022, followed by the current $1.37M listing, presents an unusual and substantial price difference that requires clarification for potential buyers.
