Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1944, the home shows some cosmetic updates like newer vinyl plank flooring and fresh paint. However, the listing's emphasis on 'potential' and 'opportunity to customize,' combined with a dated 1.25 bath configuration and the absence of kitchen/bath photos, indicates that the primary systems and wet rooms are likely over 20 years old and require modernization.
The expansive 6,000-square-foot lot and detached garage offer significant opportunities for an ADU conversion, guest house, or home expansion to maximize property value.
Ideally situated minutes from Torrance and Redondo beaches, Del Amo Fashion Center, and scenic parks, offering residents a high-quality coastal lifestyle.
The oversized lot features mature, unique fruit trees and a large backyard, providing a rare private oasis with ample room for outdoor entertaining and gardening.
Built in 1944, the property likely requires significant modernization and updates to its systems and finishes to meet contemporary living standards.
