More Insights

Built in 1949 (77 years old).
Condition: This property is move-in ready with significant modern updates to the main house's kitchen and bathroom, featuring sleek countertops, new cabinetry, modern fixtures, and well-maintained original hardwood floors. The detached ADU is a major asset, appearing newly converted with its own modern kitchen, bathroom, and mini-split AC. However, the main house was built in 1949 and, despite renovations, lacks central air conditioning (relying on window units), which is a notable drawback for a property in Southern California and prevents an 'Excellent' rating. The overall condition is very good due to the extensive renovations in key areas, but the age of the main structure and the absence of central HVAC keep it from being considered 'virtually new' in all components.
