Condition: This property has undergone a comprehensive and high-quality renovation, transforming an older 1944 build into a virtually new home.

The kitchen is entirely new with a large island, waterfall quartz countertops, new Samsung stainless steel appliances, and modern cabinetry.

The images confirm a contemporary, move-in ready aesthetic with no visible deferred maintenance. This aligns perfectly with the 'excellent' criteria of being extensively renovated recently with all components new or virtually new.

Cons

Recently Sold Property: The property was recently sold within the past year on 2025-02-12. The sold price is $875,000.00.
Original Construction Year: Despite extensive modern renovations, the property's original construction year of 1944 might still be a psychological consideration for some buyers who prefer newer builds or have concerns about the underlying older structural elements.
Limited Dedicated Vehicle Parking: While the 400 sq ft garage is finished for flexible use (office/gym), it implies it's not primarily for vehicle parking. The description does not explicitly detail additional dedicated off-street parking, which can be a significant factor in a dense urban area like Los Angeles.
Absence of Pool or Spa: For a property in this price range and desirable Los Angeles neighborhood, the absence of a pool or spa in the backyard, despite being well-landscaped, might be a missed amenity for some luxury buyers.
