More Insights

Built in 1942 (84 years old).
Condition: Despite being built in 1942, the property has undergone significant recent renovations, particularly in the front unit, which features a tastefully updated kitchen with modern white shaker cabinets, new countertops, and a recently renovated bathroom with contemporary tiling and fixtures. The front unit also boasts new flooring and fresh paint throughout, making it move-in ready. The rear unit also shows updated kitchen cabinets, new flooring, and fresh paint, though its bathroom is less extensively renovated. While the property lacks central HVAC and some appliances are older, the extensive cosmetic updates and 'well-maintained' status elevate its condition beyond 'Fair', aligning with a 'Good' rating for being largely move-in ready with recent updates.

Pros & Cons

Pros

Income-Generating Duplex: The property is a duplex, offering a versatile opportunity for owner-occupancy with rental income or as a strong income-producing asset for investors.
Recently Updated Front Unit: The front unit (2 bed/1 bath) has been tastefully updated with fresh interior paint, new flooring, updated kitchen cabinets/countertops, and a renovated bathroom, providing a modern and move-in ready space.
Convenient Location: Strategically located near shopping, dining, schools, and freeway access, enhancing its appeal to potential tenants and owner-occupants.
Well-Maintained Property: Described as a 'well-maintained property,' suggesting good upkeep and potentially fewer immediate repair concerns for a buyer.
Desirable Views: The property offers desirable mountain and neighborhood views, adding to its aesthetic appeal and potential value.

Cons

MLS Listing Discrepancy: Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 1490, other record living area = 798. Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 3, other record bedroom count = 2.
Age of Property: Built in 1942, the property's age may imply older infrastructure (e.g., plumbing, electrical, roof) that could require significant maintenance or upgrades in the future, despite being well-maintained.
Ambiguous Rear Unit Condition: While the front unit is explicitly updated, the description for the rear unit only highlights a 'spacious living room and a functional layout,' suggesting it may not have received the same level of recent renovations and could require future investment.
Lack of HVAC Details: The property description does not specify the type or condition of heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems, which for an older home could indicate a lack of modern central air conditioning, a potential drawback in warmer climates.
