Condition Rating
Good

Built in 1980, this property has undergone extensive renovations, particularly evident in the 'gourmet chef's kitchen' and 'spa-inspired bathroom.' The kitchen features custom white cabinetry, stone countertops, and integrated appliances, while the primary bathroom boasts modern vanities, vessel sinks, and a glass-enclosed shower. Flooring throughout includes rich walnut hardwood and contemporary large-format tiles, all in excellent condition. Recessed lighting and modern fixtures are prevalent. While the renovations are significant and the property is move-in ready with a luxurious feel, the style of some updates (e.g., kitchen cabinets/countertops) suggests they may be closer to 10-15 years old rather than brand new within the last 5 years. The property's age (1980) also implies that some core systems, not visible in the images, might be older, preventing an 'Excellent' rating which requires virtually all components to be new or extensively renovated within 5 years.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Great Schools: Elementary School: Warner Avenue Elementary School (9/10).
Exceptional Value Proposition: Priced significantly below comparable properties in the area ($368/sq.ft. vs. $500+/sq.ft. for non-pool homes and $673+/sq.ft. for pool homes), representing a rare market opportunity.
Expansive Luxury Living: Nearly 9,000 sqft with six en-suite bedrooms, rich walnut floors, recessed lighting, and an open-concept design, offering a grand and comfortable lifestyle.
Resort-Style Amenities: Features a private pool with swim-up bar, spa, gym, dance studio, recreation rooms, terraced garden, and barbecue area, creating an ultimate entertainment oasis.
Gourmet Chef's Kitchen: Boasts a state-of-the-art kitchen with custom cabinetry, a large center island, and a sunlit breakfast room, ideal for culinary enthusiasts.
Prime Location & Desirable School District: Situated in the coveted Carpenter School District, south of the Blvd in the Studio City hills, with easy access to Ventura Boulevard's dining and shopping.

Cons

Property Age: Built in 1980, some core systems or structural elements might be original, potentially requiring future updates or maintenance despite cosmetic luxury upgrades.
High Operating & Maintenance Costs: The extensive size and numerous luxury amenities (pool, spa, gym, large lot, multiple kitchens) will likely incur substantial ongoing utility, landscaping, and maintenance expenses.
Hillside Lot Characteristics: While offering views, hillside properties can sometimes present challenges such as steeper access, potential for complex landscaping maintenance, or less expansive flat yard space compared to properties on level ground.
