Pros & Cons
Pros
Versatile Income/Living Potential: The property offers a main residence, a separate remodeled upstairs unit, and a permitted 773 SF storage/recreation space with ADU potential, providing significant flexibility for rental income, multi-generational living, or dedicated workspace.
Extensively Remodeled Interiors: Both the main residence and the upstairs unit have undergone recent, high-quality remodels, featuring hardwood floors throughout, bright and open chef's kitchens, and updated bathrooms with modern amenities like a soaking tub and glass-enclosed shower.
Desirable & Dynamic Neighborhood: Nestled on a quiet residential street in Historic West Adams, the location boasts quick access to Downtown, Koreatown, and a vibrant array of 'hip new spots' and local amenities, enhancing lifestyle and potential appreciation.
Ample Parking & Outdoor Space: A huge backyard provides valuable outdoor living space, complemented by a spacious driveway with room to park several cars, a significant advantage in a dense urban environment like Los Angeles.
Strategic Freeway Access: The property's location offers quick access to the Santa Monica freeway, ensuring convenient and efficient commuting throughout the greater Los Angeles area.
Cons
Age of Property & Potential Hidden Costs: Built in 1907, while historic, an older home can harbor unforeseen maintenance or infrastructure issues (e.g., plumbing, electrical, foundation) not fully addressed by cosmetic remodels, potentially leading to future expenses.
Mixed School Ratings: While some higher-rated schools are nearby, several listed elementary and middle schools have lower ratings (2-3), which might be a deterrent for buyers prioritizing access to top-tier public education.
Potential for HVAC Upgrades: The description does not explicitly mention a modern HVAC system (like central air conditioning). For a 1907 build in Los Angeles, this could imply a need for significant investment to install or upgrade climate control for optimal comfort, especially during warmer months.
