Condition Rating
Fair
The property, built in 1906, is aged but appears maintained. However, the kitchen is significantly outdated with older white appliances, basic countertops, and painted cabinets, indicating a need for renovation. The presence of a window AC unit and wall heater suggests a lack of central HVAC. While some cosmetic updates like laminate flooring and fresh paint are present, they do not constitute a full, recent renovation, and major components show signs of being outdated.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Prime Urban Location: The property boasts an excellent location with easy access to parks, transportation, popular eateries, Downtown Los Angeles, and Dodger Stadium, offering significant convenience and lifestyle advantages.
Charming Courtyard Environment: Situated in a well-maintained courtyard, this 'adorable' house provides a unique, community-oriented, and potentially quieter living experience, appealing to buyers seeking character and a distinct setting.
Private Outdoor Space: The inclusion of a 'good size side yard' is a valuable asset for an urban home, offering private outdoor living space for relaxation or entertaining.
Dedicated Garage Parking: The property comes with a one-car garage, a significant and highly desirable amenity in Los Angeles, providing secure parking and additional storage.
Independent Home Status: Despite being in a courtyard, the property is an 'individual home' and 'independent of each other,' offering the benefits of single-family ownership without shared walls, which is a key differentiator.
Cons
Limited Square Footage: At 684 sqft, the property is quite small for a 2-bedroom home, which may limit its appeal to a narrower buyer pool, particularly those needing more living space or accommodating a larger household.
Historic Property Considerations: Built in 1906, the home's age suggests potential for older systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) or structural components that may require future maintenance, upgrades, or unforeseen costs not detailed in the listing.
Single Bathroom: The presence of only one bathroom for a two-bedroom residence can be a functional limitation for multiple occupants or guests, potentially impacting daily convenience and resale value for some buyers.
