Condition Analysis

OVERALL CONDITION SCORE

Good
TeardownExcellent

Property is move-in ready.

The property is move-in ready and meticulously maintained with several high-end upgrades. While the 1989 construction features some dated architectural elements like sunken rooms and glass blocks, it boasts a gourmet kitchen with Sub-Zero appliances, brand-new ovens, and granite countertops. Recent improvements including fresh paint, new recessed lighting, updated fixtures, and a newer dual-zone HVAC system with a backup generator elevate its condition above standard age-based expectations.

PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES

  • Gourmet Kitchen & Modern Upgrades

    The home features a high-end kitchen with Sub-Zero appliances and granite countertops, complemented by recent improvements such as fresh paint, new recessed lighting, and updated fixtures throughout.

  • Functional Multi-Generational Layout

    The floor plan includes a desirable downstairs bedroom with an adjacent full bathroom, providing an ideal setup for guests, a home office, or multi-generational living arrangements.

  • Premium Infrastructure & Utilities

    Equipped with a newer dual-zone HVAC system, a Cummins backup generator, and a central vacuum system, the property offers a level of mechanical reliability and convenience rarely found at this price point.

CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES

  • Sunken Living Areas

    The 1989 architectural design includes sunken living and family rooms, which may feel dated to modern buyers or present accessibility challenges compared to contemporary open-concept floor plans.

  • Limited Outdoor Space

    With a substantial 3,230 square foot interior on a 6,626 square foot lot, the backyard is primarily hardscaped, which may not appeal to buyers seeking a large grassy area or significant garden space.

About 217 N Lima

Welcome to this exceptional Sierra Madre residence, introduced by a beautifully crafted paver driveway that leads to a spacious 2-car attached garage featuring built-in cabinetry and a convenient workbench. Step inside to a grand two-story foyer that opens to a sunken living room adorned with an elegant fireplace and direct access to the formal dining room—an ideal setting for gatherings and celebrations. A conveniently located downstairs bedroom with a generous closet sits adjacent to a full bathroom, making it perfect for guests or a mother-in-law suite. The expansive kitchen is thoughtfully positioned between the formal and informal dining areas and showcases a Sub-Zero refrigerator, brand-new built-in oven/microwave combo, stainless steel hood, large walk-in pantry, prep island with sink, and custom granite countertops. The cooktop peninsula offers comfortable pub-height seating for 5–6, creating a natural hub for conversation. The sunken family room features a second inviting fireplace and a sliding glass door that opens to the peaceful backyard. Upstairs, the primary suite impresses with ample room for a sitting area and dual cedar-lined walk-in closets. The luxurious ensuite bathroom includes a decorative glass pocket door, spa tub, walk-in shower, stained-glass accents, glass-block windows, and dual granite-topped vanities. Additional highlights include a dedicated laundry room with extensive cabinetry, granite counters, and a utility sink. Adjacent is a versatile utility room ideal for storage, a home gym, workshop, or other creative uses. The private, fully enclosed backyard is low-maintenance and beautifully designed with drought-tolerant landscaping, elegant pavers, and a tranquil water feature. Recent improvements include fresh interior and exterior paint, new recessed lighting throughout, and all-new fixtures. The home is further enhanced with hardwood, tile, and vinyl flooring; a central vacuum system; new Decora light switches; a newer dual-zone HVAC system; an alarm system; a fire sprinkler system; and a Cummins generator for ultimate peace of mind. This is a rare opportunity to own a meticulously maintained and thoughtfully upgraded home in one of Sierra Madre’s most treasured neighborhoods.
