Condition Analysis

OVERALL CONDITION SCORE

Poor
TeardownExcellent

Property is extensive renovation needed.

Built in 1954 and sold in its current 'as-is' condition, the property is marketed primarily as a land-value opportunity for 'world-class new construction.' Visual evidence shows significant deferred maintenance, including extensive cracking in the driveway and pool deck, and a very dated detached structure. The absence of interior photos, combined with the description's emphasis on the lot as a 'canvas' and the need for an architect, indicates that the kitchen, bathrooms, and major systems are likely at the end of their functional lifespan and require substantial rehabilitation.

PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES

  • High Available Lot Utilization

    The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 25775, living area = 2769.

  • Expansive Flat Lot

    The property features a rare 0.59-acre flat lot with a 101-foot wide frontage, providing a massive and versatile footprint for a grand-scale estate or world-class new construction.

  • Elite Location

    Situated on a coveted, tree-lined street in the heart of San Marino, the home is just one block from the Crowell Public Library and top-tier Valentine Elementary and Huntington Middle Schools.

CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES

  • MLS Listing Discrepancy

    Lot size discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing lot size in square feet =25775, other record lot size in square feet = 24764. Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 2769, other record living area = 2369.

  • As-Is Condition

    The property is being sold in its current condition, which likely necessitates a total renovation or complete teardown to meet the standards of the surrounding luxury market.

  • Under-Improved Structure

    The existing 2,369-square-foot ranch home is relatively modest compared to the massive lot size, making the purchase primarily a land-value play for most buyers.
