Condition Analysis
OVERALL CONDITION SCORE
Property is new construction or fully renovated.
This property is a triplex with components ranging from brand new to extensively renovated. The ADU was built in 2024, and the back house in 2017, both meeting the 'newly built' or 'built within 10 years' criteria with modern kitchens, bathrooms, and flooring (LVP, tile). The original main home, built in 1910, has undergone a 'no expense spared' renovation, including new roof, plumbing, updated electrical, and restored original hardwood flooring. While the main house retains historic charm with features like a vintage stove and clawfoot tub, these are presented as high-quality, well-maintained elements of its heritage, not signs of deferred maintenance. The overall property demonstrates a very high standard of recent renovation and new construction, with all major systems updated and components in virtually new or excellent condition, aligning with the 'excellent' criteria for overall quality.

- Age of Original Structure
Despite extensive renovations, the main home's 1910 build year means the core structure is over a century old, which could potentially lead to unforeseen maintenance or structural issues not fully addressed by recent upgrades.

Its prime location directly across from Whittier College and within a vibrant Uptown area suggests a high level of foot traffic, vehicular activity, and potential noise, which may not appeal to all tenants seeking a quieter residential environment.
