More Insights

Built in 1920 (106 years old).
Condition: This 1920-built property has undergone extensive and high-quality renovations, making it move-in ready. The kitchen features modern stainless steel appliances, sleek countertops, and updated cabinetry. Bathrooms are also thoroughly updated with contemporary vanities, glass-enclosed showers, and modern tiling. Hardwood floors and recessed lighting are prevalent throughout. While the original build year is old, the visible components are in excellent condition, suggesting a significant renovation within the last 5-15 years. The primary reason it's not 'Excellent' is the lack of explicit detail on the age and condition of major systems like HVAC (and the noted absence of central AC), electrical, and plumbing, which, given the original build year, might not be as recently updated as the cosmetic elements.

Cons

MLS Listing Discrepancy: Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 3779, other record living area = 3174.
Age of Property (1920): Built in 1920, while possessing historic charm, the property may have original systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that could require significant updates or maintenance not explicitly detailed beyond the kitchen.
Lack of Mentioned Central Air Conditioning: The property description does not specify the presence of a central air conditioning system, which could be a significant comfort concern and potential upgrade cost in Los Angeles's climate.
High Maintenance for Large Lot: The extensive 10,000+ sq ft lot and beautifully landscaped garden, while an asset, will require considerable ongoing maintenance, time, and financial investment from the homeowner.
