More Insights

Built in 1920 (105 years old).
Condition: Despite being built in 1920, the property has undergone an extensive and very recent renovation, as evidenced by the 'sleek, modern design' mentioned in the description and the high-quality images. Both kitchens feature new white shaker cabinets, quartz countertops, modern appliances (including a 6-burner stove, stainless steel refrigerators, and dishwashers), and contemporary lighting. The bathrooms are also fully updated with modern vanities, large format tile, and glass shower enclosures. New light wood-look flooring is consistent throughout the living areas. All visible components appear new or virtually new, meeting current quality standards. While the original build year suggests potential underlying infrastructure concerns and the lack of central AC is a drawback, the visible and described condition of the living spaces, kitchens, and bathrooms is unequivocally excellent, indicating a full renovation within the last 5 years.

Pros & Cons

Pros

Great Schools: Elementary School: Ivanhoe Elementary School (9/10).
Exceptional Income Potential & Flexibility: This duplex, featuring two residential homes and an additional guest quarters/studio, is delivered vacant, offering significant rental income potential (estimated $4800 + $3800 + guest quarters) and versatility for owner-occupancy, multi-generational living, or full investment.
Highly Desirable Silver Lake Location: Situated in a prime Eastside enclave, the property is moments from Echo Park Lake, Sunset Junction, Silver Lake Reservoir, and popular local establishments, ensuring strong tenant demand and property value appreciation.
Modernized Interiors & Included Appliances: The front residence boasts a 'sleek, modern design' with an open-concept living area, sunroom, and island kitchen. Both main units come with essential appliances (refrigerator, stove, dishwasher, washer/dryer), enhancing tenant appeal and convenience.
Development Potential (RD 1.5 Zoning): Zoned RD 1.5, the property allows for higher density development, providing future potential for expansion, additional units, or formal ADU conversion of the guest quarters, adding long-term value.
Private Outdoor Spaces & Views: Both main residences feature private outdoor areas (sitting area for the front, backyard with a deck for the rear), and the property offers desirable City Lights, Courtyard, and Neighborhood views, improving living quality and marketability.

Cons

MLS Listing Discrepancy: Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 1931, other record living area = 1819.
Advanced Age of Property: Built in 1920, the property is over a century old, which may lead to concerns about aging infrastructure (plumbing, electrical, foundation) and potentially higher maintenance or renovation costs for unseen issues, despite modern interior updates.
Lack of Central Air Conditioning: The property description does not mention a central cooling system, which could be a significant drawback and comfort issue for tenants or owner-occupants during Los Angeles's hot summer months.
Limited Parking for Multiple Units: While the front unit has a carport/driveway for up to 2 cars, the parking situation for the rear unit and guest quarters is not explicitly detailed, potentially leading to parking challenges in a dense urban neighborhood for multiple occupants.
