More Insights
Built in 1925 (101 years old).
Condition: Built in 1925, this charming home is well-maintained but largely un-renovated. The kitchen features outdated tile countertops, older appliances (white refrigerator, older range), and traditional white cabinets, clearly requiring a full modernization. The bathroom also shows its age with pedestal sinks, older tile work, and a basic shower enclosure. While the hardwood floors are a plus and the overall structure appears sound, the property explicitly states it's 'waiting for your designer touch' and needs 'updating ideas,' indicating significant cosmetic and functional updates are needed to bring it to current standards. Major components are functional but show signs of being outdated.

Great Schools: Elementary School: Fairburn Avenue Elementary School (9/10). High School: Beverly Hills High School (9/10).
Prime Location: Situated in a highly desirable 'North of Santa Monica' neighborhood, offering excellent proximity to UCLA, Westfield Century City Mall, and Beverly Hills, enhancing its market value and appeal.
Architectural Character: A charming Country English style home built in 1925, featuring unique elements like a dramatic soaring exposed beam ceiling and a fireplace, providing distinct character and curb appeal.
Top-Rated School Proximity: Zoned for the highly-rated Fairburn Elementary School (Rating 9) and located within walking distance (0.24 miles), making it very attractive to families.
Renovation Potential: Described as having a 'great floor plan' and 'features waiting for your designer touch,' indicating a solid foundation for significant value appreciation through modernization and customization.
Outdoor Living & Privacy: Features a privately landscaped backyard with a patio, and multiple bedrooms offer direct access to outdoor yard or patio areas, promoting an indoor-outdoor lifestyle.
Cons
Requires Significant Updating: The listing explicitly states the need to 'bring your updating ideas' and 'designer touch,' suggesting substantial renovation costs will be required to modernize the home to current market expectations.
Limited Bathroom Count: With 3 bedrooms and only 1.5 bathrooms (as per description), the property's functionality and appeal may be limited for larger families or those seeking more modern amenities, potentially requiring an expansion.
Age of Property (1925): While offering charm, a 1925 build often implies potential for outdated infrastructure such as electrical, plumbing, and HVAC systems, which could lead to unforeseen repair or replacement expenses.
