Property is extensive renovation needed.
Built in 1947 and marketed as a 'diamond in the rough' sold in as-is condition, this property requires substantial rehabilitation and modernization. While it features new interior paint, the age of the home combined with the 'as-is' status and the limited 3-bed/1-bath configuration suggests significant deferred maintenance and outdated major systems typical of a fixer-upper.
The property sits on a generous 6,849 sqft corner lot, providing ample outdoor space for family gatherings, gardening, and potential future expansions or ADU possibilities.
Ideally situated near Greenleaf Blvd and major freeways, this home offers excellent walkability to Compton College, local parks, shopping centers, and various dining options.
The property features a rare enclosed gated area that can easily accommodate multiple vehicles in addition to the garage, offering enhanced security and convenience for homeowners.
Marketed as a 'diamond in the rough' and sold in as-is condition, the home will likely require significant additional investment for repairs and modernization beyond the recent interior paint.
With three bedrooms but only one bathroom, the current configuration may be a drawback for larger families or modern buyers who typically expect a higher bed-to-bath ratio.
