Property is move-in ready.
While originally built in 1907, the property is well-maintained and move-in ready. It features a brand new roof, gutters, and exterior paint. The kitchen and bathroom have been updated with stainless appliances and Corian counters (likely a 5-15 year old renovation). Systems are modernized with mini-split HVAC and updated electrical, placing it firmly in the 'Good' category.
Elementary School: Whittier Elementary School (9/10).
The property features a brand new roof, gutters, and exterior paint, along with updated electrical and mini-split HVAC systems, offering immediate peace of mind and reduced maintenance costs for the buyer.
A detached art studio provides valuable additional square footage for a home office, gym, or guest space, perfectly complementing the charming main residence and its mature, fully fenced yard.
With only 530 square feet of living area and a single bedroom, the home's small footprint significantly restricts its utility and may limit appeal to a narrower segment of the market.
Having spent 80 days on the market, the property may face perception issues regarding its value proposition relative to its size, potentially impacting its liquidity and negotiating leverage.
