Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1970, the property shows some cosmetic updates such as newer wood-look flooring and neutral paint. However, the kitchen is dated with older electric coil appliances and laminate countertops, and the presence of popcorn ceilings suggests the unit has not undergone a full modern renovation in over 20 years.
Priced under $300,000, this property represents a rare and highly affordable entry point into the Tarzana real estate market, ideal for first-time buyers or investors.
The unit offers excellent walkability and transit access, situated minutes from Ventura Boulevard’s dining and shopping, Balboa Park, and the 101 freeway.
