Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1981, the property is currently presented in 'vanilla-box' condition, serving as a renovation canvas. While it boasts excellent structural and surface updates—including a new 30-year roof, fresh stucco, and refinished hardwood floors—the kitchen and bathrooms remain stylistically outdated. The kitchen features older built-in appliances and cabinetry, and the bathrooms, while functional and featuring luxury legacy items like a sauna, reflect design trends from several decades ago. It requires significant interior modernization to meet current luxury standards.
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 40240, living area = 8114.
Elementary School: Warner Avenue Elementary School (9/10). High School: Beverly Hills High School (9/10).
Perched at the absolute pinnacle of a private ridgetop, the property commands unobstructed, 270-degree views of the Hollywood Sign, Downtown LA, and the San Bernardino Mountains.
As a 'vision' property in vanilla-box condition, it lacks the high-end interior finishes expected at this price point, requiring a significant additional capital investment to become move-in ready.
While the hillside location ensures privacy and views, the steep terrain may limit the amount of usable flat yard space for traditional outdoor amenities like a large pool or expansive lawn.
