Condition Rating
Fair
Built in 1972, this property is over 50 years old and shows no evidence of major renovations in the past 30-50 years. The kitchen features highly outdated cabinets, laminate countertops, older white appliances, and an outdated fluorescent light fixture. The bathroom also exhibits a dated vanity, fixtures, and lighting. While the property appears functional and maintained, as suggested by the 'functional kitchen' description, it requires significant cosmetic updates to meet current standards. There are no visible signs or descriptions of major structural or safety defects that would classify it as 'Poor' or 'Tear-down', but it is clearly aged with outdated components.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Expansive Lot Size: The property boasts an exceptionally large 25,683 sq ft lot, offering unparalleled space for privacy, outdoor activities, and future expansion.
Private Pool & Outdoor Oasis: Features a sparkling private pool and lush landscaping, creating an ideal setting for entertaining and relaxation.
Prime Foothills Location with Views: Situated in the scenic Sylmar foothills, providing desirable mountain views and convenient access to hiking trails, parks, shopping, and freeway access.
Significant Development Potential: The generous lot size and existing structure offer immense potential for expansion, customization, or investment, allowing buyers to create their dream home.
Recent Price Adjustment: A recent price reduction from $950,000 to $885,000 makes the property more competitive and attractive to potential buyers.
Cons
Dated Interior & Renovation Needs: Built in 1972, the property likely requires significant interior updates and a 'personal touch' to modernize its aesthetic and systems.
Modest Interior Square Footage: At 1,292 sq ft, the interior living space is relatively modest compared to the expansive lot size, potentially limiting immediate living comfort for some buyers without expansion.
Initial Overpricing/Market Resistance: The recent price drop suggests the property may have been initially overpriced or faced market resistance at its original listing price, potentially indicating a longer sales cycle.
