More Insights

Built in 1924 (102 years old).
Condition: Despite being built in 1924, this property has undergone a very recent and extensive renovation, bringing all key components to an excellent, virtually new condition. The kitchen features new stainless steel appliances, solid natural oak cabinetry, and real dolomite stone countertops. Both bathrooms are thoughtfully transformed with modern fixtures, tiling, and vanities. Hardwood flooring, fresh paint, and contemporary light fixtures are present throughout. The landscaping has also been newly updated. While the property analysis notes an absence of central air conditioning, the condition of all existing and renovated elements meets current quality standards with no deferred maintenance.

Cons

MLS Listing Discrepancy: Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 3, other record bedroom count = 2.
Recently Sold Property: The property was recently sold within the past year on 2025-06-05. The sold price is $710,000.00.
Compact Interior Size: With 977 square feet for a 3-bedroom home, the interior living space may be considered small for some buyers, particularly those seeking more expansive living areas.
Unestablished Landscaping: The outdoor areas, while having potential, are described as having 'enhanced' photos and 'currently establishing' grass, indicating the full landscaping vision is not yet realized and requires time for growth.
Absence of Central Air Conditioning: The property description does not mention a cooling system, which is a significant drawback for comfort during Los Angeles's warmer months, especially for a home built in 1924.
