This 1924 bungalow is 100 years old and, while livable with intact hardwood floors, shows clear signs of being dated. The use of a window AC unit indicates a lack of modern central HVAC, and the listing's emphasis on 'investor opportunity' and 'remodeling' potential suggests that the kitchen, bathroom, and core systems likely require significant updates to meet modern standards.
The property features a 900-1000 sq. ft. attic space that offers significant potential for conversion into additional living area, providing a unique opportunity to nearly double the home's square footage and increase market value.
Situated in the highly desirable Rose Garden neighborhood, the home enjoys excellent proximity to local parks, shopping, dining, and major freeways, making it an ideal spot for commuters and urban enthusiasts.
This 1924 bungalow retains sought-after vintage character, including original hardwood floors and a fireplace, offering a charming foundation for first-time buyers or investors looking to restore a classic home.
