Property is moderate renovation needed.
This 1940s bungalow is well-maintained and clean, but remains in largely original or dated condition. While it features newly painted interiors and classic hardwood floors, the kitchen and bathrooms are significantly outdated, featuring older tile countertops, vintage cabinetry, and basic white appliances. The property is functional and livable but lacks modern upgrades to its major systems and aesthetic, aligning with the 'fair' criteria as a candidate for renovation.
Situated in a highly desirable Santa Monica neighborhood, the property is close to top-tier shopping and dining and falls within the prestigious Santa Monica-Malibu Unified School District.
The property is permanently exempt from rent control and offers significant value-add opportunities, including the potential to renovate the existing structure or add an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU).
Despite its compact size, the home features sought-after elements like original hardwood floors, a versatile atrium/office space, and a rare attached two-car garage.
With only 886 square feet of living space, the home may feel cramped for families or those requiring more substantial indoor square footage.
Built in 1940, the property likely requires modernization or significant renovation to align with contemporary luxury standards and maximize its market value.
