Condition Rating
Fair

The property, built in 1959, shows signs of regular maintenance and some functional updates like a composite roof installed 10-12 years ago and central HVAC. However, the interior, especially the kitchen, is significantly outdated with original-style wood cabinets, tile countertops, dated appliances, and older flooring and light fixtures. While functional, these areas would require substantial cosmetic renovation to meet current buyer expectations. The overall condition aligns with a home that is aged but maintained, with major components functional but showing signs of being outdated, fitting the 'Fair' category.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Exceptional Location & Accessibility: Located in the desirable Shadow Hills neighborhood on a peaceful street, offering central access to major employment centers, entertainment venues, shopping districts, and educational institutions including Burbank, Glendale, Pasadena, Hollywood, USC, UCLA, JPL, and major stadiums.
Generous Lot Size & Outdoor Living: Features a private over 26,000 sqft lot with a sparkling deep pool, large patio, water fountain, and mature trees, providing an ideal and secluded environment for entertaining guests and private relaxation.
Significant Expansion & Income Potential: Offers endless possibilities for building a dream home or adding ADUs, with a two-car garage convertible to an ADU/Guest House, a den convertible to a 4th bedroom, and existing horse stalls, adding substantial versatility and future value.
Updated Core Systems & Infrastructure: Benefits from a relatively new composite roof (10-12 years old with a 45-year warranty), central gas air-conditioning and heating, a 7-section automatic sprinkler system, partial copper plumbing, and connected sewer, reducing immediate capital expenditures for major systems.
Ample Parking & Enhanced Security: A gated home featuring private driveways and an extra-large courtyard capable of parking 8+ vehicles, including RVs or boats, complemented by security video cameras with motion sensors and a Ring doorbell for added safety and convenience.

Cons

Dated Interior Aesthetics: Built in 1959 and owned by the same family for over 41 years, the interior, including the 'nice kitchen with laminate floors' and 'charming floor plan,' suggests finishes may be dated and could require significant cosmetic upgrades to meet contemporary buyer preferences.
Aggressive Pricing Justification: The listing's direct comparison to a $4.275M property across the street, while the subject property is listed at $1.229M (above its estimated value of $1.15M), creates a potentially misleading perception of value and could raise buyer skepticism.
Limited Specifics on Interior Modernization: While key infrastructure is updated, the description lacks details on recent interior renovations (e.g., bathrooms, modern flooring beyond laminate, fixtures), indicating these areas might be original or require significant investment for a full modernization.
