More Insights

Built in 1947 (79 years old).
Condition: This property has undergone extensive, high-quality renovations, making it largely move-in ready with a modern aesthetic. The kitchen features new stainless steel appliances, white shaker cabinets, quartz countertops, and a large island, all in excellent condition. Bathrooms are also newly updated with modern vanities, tiling, and fixtures, including a luxurious primary en-suite with a soaking tub and glass-enclosed shower. New wood-look flooring, fresh paint, and modern lighting are present throughout. The outdoor space with a new saltwater pool, decking, and turf is a significant upgrade. However, despite the 'upgraded systems,' the MLS analysis explicitly notes the 'Absence of Central Air Conditioning in Main House.' While the converted garage has AC, the lack of central AC in the main residence prevents an 'Excellent' rating, as it falls short of 'all components meeting current quality standards' for a fully renovated home in this climate.

Cons

MLS Listing Discrepancy: Lot size discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing lot size in square feet =6600, other record lot size in square feet = 6417.
Smaller Interior Square Footage: At 1518 sqft, the interior living space may be considered modest for some buyers, particularly given the property's price point in the Altadena market.
Lack of Traditional Garage: The garage has been converted into a versatile flex space, which, while a strength for its utility, means the property does not offer a traditional enclosed garage for vehicle parking or dedicated storage.
Absence of Central Air Conditioning in Main House: While the converted garage has air conditioning, the description does not explicitly mention central AC for the main residence, which could be a significant drawback in Southern California's climate.
