The kitchen is well-appointed with high-end professional-grade stainless steel appliances (including a Viking range) and stone countertops.

PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES

  • Great Schools

    Elementary School: Fairburn Avenue Elementary School (9/10).

  • Prime Westwood Location

    Situated in a highly sought-after pocket near Century City and Westwood Village, the property offers exceptional walkability to the premium dining and shopping along Westwood Boulevard.

  • Desirable Corner Layout

    As a sophisticated corner residence, the unit is bathed in natural light and features a formal entry foyer that provides a graceful separation between public and private living spaces.

CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES

  • High Monthly HOA Fees

    The association fee of $830 per month is significant for a mid-sized building, which may impact the overall affordability and appeal for budget-conscious buyers.

  • Underperforming Middle School

    While the elementary schools are top-rated, the assigned Daniel Webster Middle School has a low rating of 3/10, which may be a deterrent for families with older children.

  • Limited Recent Appreciation

    The current list price of $1.295M is only a marginal increase over its 2022 sale price of $1.275M, suggesting stagnant value growth in the current market cycle for this specific building.
