Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1923, this four-unit property is functional and currently occupied, but shows clear signs of aging infrastructure consistent with its century-old origin. The absence of interior photos suggests that the kitchens and bathrooms are likely outdated and have not undergone recent high-end renovations. Exterior observations show window AC units, older roofing, and deferred cosmetic maintenance, placing it firmly in the 'fair' category as a property that is livable but requires modernization and minor repairs.
The expansive 13,504 SF LAR2 lot with alley access offers significant potential for ADU additions or future repositioning in a high-demand Los Angeles submarket.
With approximately ten on-site parking spaces and a long driveway, the property provides a rare and highly valuable amenity for a multi-unit complex in this area.
The improvements are spread across four separate structures, offering tenants increased privacy and a flexible layout that currently maximizes rental capacity beyond public records.
Originally constructed in 1923, the property may require substantial capital improvements and ongoing maintenance to modernize century-old systems.
