Property is new construction or fully renovated.
Despite being built in 1972, the property has undergone an extensive and recent renovation. The kitchen features modern white shaker cabinets, quartz countertops, and new stainless steel appliances. Both bathrooms are fully updated with contemporary grey tiling, modern vanities, fixtures, and glass-enclosed showers. Throughout the home, new LVP flooring, fresh paint, and modern mini-split HVAC units indicate a comprehensive update, making the property virtually new in its key components and meeting current quality standards.
The property is described as a 'charming two-bedroom, two-bath bungalow' that blends classic character with modern comfort, appealing to buyers seeking a cozy and aesthetically pleasing home.
A unique outdoor quasi-kitchen and gated yard provide excellent opportunities for al fresco dining, entertaining, and enjoying Southern California's climate, enhancing lifestyle appeal.
The presence of a gated yard offers both enhanced security and a private retreat, a valuable feature in urban environments.
With only 945 sqft, the interior living space is relatively small, which may limit its appeal to buyers seeking more expansive accommodations or growing families.
Built in 1972, the property's age suggests that major systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical, HVAC) may require updates or modernization if not already completed, which could incur additional costs for a buyer.
The property explicitly states 'None' for views, which can be a drawback in the Los Angeles market where scenic vistas often command a premium.
