More Insights

Built in 1979 (47 years old).
Condition: Built in 1979 and largely unrenovated for nearly 47 years, the property's interior, particularly the kitchen, is significantly dated. The kitchen features original-style wood cabinets, terracotta flooring, white tile backsplash, and very old appliances (cooktop, double ovens, integrated refrigerator) that require complete replacement. Other interior spaces show dated wallpaper, worn carpets, and older fixtures, indicating a need for substantial rehabilitation and modernization throughout to meet current standards.

Cons

MLS Listing Discrepancy: Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 5083, other record living area = 4332. Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 6, other record bedroom count = 4.
Extensive Renovation/Modernization Needed: Built in 1979 and enjoyed by the same family for nearly 47 years, the home likely requires substantial investment for modernization and updates to meet current luxury market standards.
Absence of Desirable Views: The property description explicitly states 'view: None,' which may be a drawback for buyers seeking panoramic city, canyon, or ocean views often found in this price point and area.
Potential for Dated Systems/Finishes: Long-term ownership often implies original or outdated mechanical systems, appliances, and interior finishes, which could lead to immediate capital expenditures for a new owner.
