Condition Rating
Poor
Built in 1947, this property is in extremely poor condition, requiring substantial repairs and rehabilitation. The kitchen and bathrooms are severely outdated, dirty, and show significant disrepair, necessitating complete gut renovations. Flooring is old and damaged throughout. The 'AS IS' sale condition, coupled with visible deferred maintenance and outdated systems, indicates that the property is very uncomfortable to live in its current state and will require a significant investment to bring it to a habitable and modern standard.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Exceptional Location: Prime Alhambra location offering unparalleled convenience to the Valley shopping district, banks, and restaurants.
Desirable Property Type & Size: A single-family residence with a functional 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom layout and a generous 1,737 sqft of living space.
Ample Lot Size: A substantial 6,465 sqft lot provides significant outdoor space for potential expansion, landscaping, or recreation.
Recent Price Reduction: The recent price drop from $998,000 to $940,000 enhances its market competitiveness and value proposition.
Strong School District: Located within the Alhambra High School District, which is a significant draw for families.
Cons
As-Is Sale Condition: The property is explicitly sold in 'AS IS' condition, with the seller not responsible for repairs, indicating potential for significant buyer-incurred renovation costs.
Property Age & Potential for Updates: Built in 1947, the home is likely to require substantial modernization and updates to meet contemporary standards and buyer expectations.
Death on Property Disclosure: The disclosure of a death on the property, while legally required, may be a sensitive point for some buyers and could potentially narrow the pool of interested parties.
