Property is move-in ready.
This 1928 Spanish-style residence is in move-in ready condition with clear evidence of recent high-quality updates. The bathrooms have been fully renovated with modern vanities, contemporary black fixtures, and stylish tile work. The kitchen is well-maintained and features stainless steel appliances. While the home preserves its original character through polished hardwood floors and barrel ceilings, the presence of window-mounted AC units suggests that the HVAC system has not been fully modernized to central air, which, along with the age of the kitchen cabinetry, aligns the property with the 'good' rather than 'excellent' classification.
This 1928 Spanish-style residence preserves its timeless appeal through original hardwood floors, classic barrel ceilings, and graceful archways, offering a level of charm highly coveted in the West Adams market.
The property is perfectly positioned within a vibrant culinary hub near popular hotspots like Alta and Cento Pasta Bar, while providing excellent transit connectivity via the Expo and Crenshaw/LAX lines.
Featuring a private entry courtyard and a formal dining room with French doors that open to an outdoor patio and large yard, the layout is optimized for the Southern California lifestyle and entertaining.
The assigned public middle and high schools carry low performance ratings (2/10), which may be a significant drawback for families focused on the local school district.
