SUMMARY
This property presents a High-Potential Investment Opportunity with a List Price of $1,290,000—positioned well above the $1,112,999 Fair Market Value. While the property is priced at a premium, its R3 Zoning and Dual-Unit Versatility—featuring a 3-bedroom main house and a separate 1-bedroom in-law suite—provide significant long-term development and rental potential. With a Condition Rating of 4, the home requires modernization, yet it remains a strategic asset in the Torrance Unified School District. This is an ideal acquisition for Buy-and-Hold Investors or Owner-Occupants seeking multigenerational living solutions.
