More Insights
Built in 2006 (19 years old).
Condition: Built in 2006, this property is 18 years old, falling within the '10 to 20 years' built criterion for a 'Good' score. The home is move-in ready and appears well-maintained with minimal wear and tear. The kitchen features wood cabinets, granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances, which are functional and in good condition, but their style is consistent with the mid-2000s and not 'virtually new' by current design standards. Similarly, the bathrooms are clean and functional, but their finishes reflect the property's age rather than a recent, extensive renovation. Major systems are expected to be within their lifespan, and while some aesthetic updates might be desired by a new owner, no immediate renovations are required.

Prime Brentwood Location: Situated on a coveted, quiet street just one block south of the Brentwood Country Club, offering a highly desirable address with proximity to upscale restaurants, shopping, and Santa Monica beaches.
Modern Construction & Functional Layout: Built in 2006, this property features a beautiful and relatively modern construction with a classic, functional floor plan including 4 bedrooms upstairs and 1 downstairs, catering to diverse living arrangements.
Exceptional for Entertaining: Designed for hosting, the home boasts a gourmet kitchen with a butler's pantry adjacent to the dining room, convenient access to patio dining, and a private backyard with ample room for gatherings.
Luxurious Master Suite: The property includes a luxurious master suite complete with a fireplace and a private balcony, providing a sophisticated and comfortable retreat.
Ample Parking: Offers easy parking with an attached two-car garage, additional driveway space, and plenty of street parking, a significant advantage in a dense urban area.
Cons
Recently Sold Property: The property was recently sold within the past year on 2025-09-05. The sold price is $3,920,000.00.
No View: The property explicitly states 'None' for views, which can be a drawback in a high-value area like Brentwood where panoramic or scenic views often command a premium.
Potential Overpricing: The current listing price of $4.5 million is approximately 11% higher than the estimated property value of $3.96 million, potentially indicating it is priced above market expectations.
Absence of a Pool: Despite having a private backyard suitable for entertaining, the description does not mention a pool, which is often a highly desired amenity for luxury homes in the Los Angeles climate.
