West Covina, California 91791
This Mid-Century Modern Value-Add Asset is listed at $738,000, positioned fairly relative to its $723,685 Fair Market Value. While the property carries a Condition Rating of 5 due to original 1950s finishes and significant deferred maintenance, its architectural "bones" offer a clear path to forced appreciation and high ROI. The expansive 9,762 sqft cul-de-sac lot provides exceptional utility for a potential ADU and pool, while the mountain views and Covina Valley Unified district location ensure strong resale demand. This high-upside project is an ideal acquisition for Fix-and-Flip Investors or Contractors.

Property is extensive renovation needed.
This 1955 mid-century home is in mostly original condition and requires substantial rehabilitation. The listing and images confirm significant deferred maintenance, including the need for a new roof and fascia board repairs. The kitchen and bathrooms feature original 1950s cabinetry, tile, and appliances that are well beyond their functional lifespan. Additionally, the flooring is outdated, the backyard requires extensive landscaping and concrete repair, and the use of window AC units indicates a lack of modern central HVAC systems.
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 9762, living area = 1274.
The home features highly desirable Mid-Century Modern design elements, including an open floor plan and vaulted ceilings with original exposed wood beams and tongue-and-groove finishes.
Situated on a nearly 10,000 sqft lot at the end of a cul-de-sac, the property offers exceptional privacy and ample space for a pool, an ADU, and RV parking.
The property requires immediate capital investment for essential repairs, specifically a new roof and fascia board restoration, due to years of deferred upkeep.
The kitchen and bathrooms retain their original 1950s finishes, which will likely necessitate a full-scale renovation to meet the expectations of modern buyers.
Attention Investors and Handy-Homeowners looking for good bones. This may be just what you’re looking for. Original Mid-Century Modern home with the same owners since 1964 sitting on a large cul-de-sac lot. You enter into the open floor plan which encompasses the Living Room, Dining area, and Kitchen, all under the vaulted ceiling with exposed wood beams and tongue-and-grooved boards which still retain their natural finish. Down the hallway you’ll find the Primary Bedroom and attached Bathroom featuring the original pedestal sink and a shower stall with the original tile. There are two additional bedrooms and another bathroom. The expansive backyard is a raw canvas, possibly large enough to add a pool and an ADU. The two-car garage and wide driveway are suitable for parking several cars with room for your RV as well. The house has had some deferred maintenance, most likely going to need a roof and some fascia board repair but the bones are good and the cul-de-sac location and large lot are worth the effort.
