Property is extensive renovation needed.
Built in 1947 and held by the same owner for over 50 years, the property is in original/dated condition. The kitchen features 30+ year old cabinetry and linoleum, systems appear to be localized wall units rather than central HVAC, and the overall interior requires a full rehab to address aging infrastructure and finishes.
Situated in the desirable La Crescenta foothills, the property offers excellent proximity to top-rated schools, local parks, and the popular shopping and dining district of Montrose.
The inclusion of a detached studio with a half bath and an unrecorded third bedroom provides significant flexibility for a home office, guest quarters, or creative workspace.
The property features a covered deck, dedicated garden space, and scenic hill views, offering a solid foundation for creating a high-end outdoor living environment.
Off the market for over 50 years, the home requires comprehensive modernization and cosmetic repairs to meet contemporary standards and buyer expectations.
With only one full bathroom serving a potential three-bedroom layout, the current configuration may be insufficient for modern families and could impact the property's competitive value.
This charming home, located in the foothills of La Crescenta, hasn't been on the market for over 50 years. The home sits on the upside of the street, with off street parking in front. As per Assessor's Records it shows two bedrooms, but there is a third bedroom off the Living Room. Behind the house is a detached Studio, with a half bath, and open area. It has a covered deck, for entertaining. Also, to the side of the Studio there is room for a garden. With some great ideas, and updating, this could be your Forever Home! Conveniently located close to schools, parks, and the Town of Montrose, with restaurants, and several shops, dance studio, hair and nail salons, and much more.
