Condition Rating
Fair

Built in 1973, this property shows signs of regular upkeep and some updates, but also significant outdated elements. The kitchen features updated stainless steel appliances and appears functional, though the light wood cabinets and terracotta-style flooring reflect an older, rustic aesthetic. The bathrooms, however, are clearly outdated with tiled countertops and small square wall tiles, which would require substantial renovation to meet current standards. While the exterior and deck appear well-maintained and possibly updated, the overall condition, particularly the bathrooms, prevents it from being considered 'Good' as it requires more than minor cosmetic updates for modern appeal.
Pros & Cons

Pros

High Available Lot Utilization: The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 36900, living area = 2726.
Expansive Private Lot: Nearly one acre (36,900 sqft) offering a private, serene retreat with mature oak trees and natural ambiance, including the sound of a running creek.
Dedicated Creative Space: Features a detached, soundproof recording studio, providing an ideal sanctuary for musicians, writers, or remote work professionals.
Prime Mountain Location: Nestled in the highly coveted Monte Nido area within the Santa Monica Mountains, offering scenic views and a tranquil, sought-after environment.
Exceptional Outdoor Living: Boasts generous outdoor spaces with ample Ipe decking, thoughtfully arranged Flagstone patios, winding paths, and multiple relaxing sitting areas.
Recreational & Lifestyle Access: Offers direct access to numerous hiking, biking, and horse trails (including the Backbone Trail) and is minutes away from Malibu beaches, dining, and Calabasas amenities.

Cons

Pricing Strategy & Market Perception: A significant price reduction from the original list price and 'motivated sellers' indicate potential overpricing or challenges in attracting buyers, with the current list price still above the property estimation.
Property Age & Potential Updates: Built in 1973, the property's age, while offering character, may imply a need for updates to systems or finishes to meet modern buyer expectations, as no major renovations are explicitly highlighted.
Bathroom Count: With 3 bedrooms and only 2 bathrooms for a 2,726 sqft home at this price point, the bathroom-to-bedroom ratio might be considered low by some prospective buyers, particularly families.
