Property is move-in ready.
The property underwent an extensive full-home remodel in 2016-17 (approximately 9 years ago), which includes modern kitchen/bath finishes and a complete overhaul of major systems (HVAC, electrical panel, copper plumbing, and roof). While the condition is high-end and move-in ready, the age of the renovation falls within the 5-15 year 'Good' criteria rather than the <5 year 'Excellent' bracket.

High School: Palos Verdes Peninsula High School (10/10).
The property underwent an extensive top-to-bottom renovation including high-end chef's kitchen finishes, modernized bathrooms, and critical infrastructure upgrades such as new HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and a newer tile roof.

At 1,768 square feet, the interior living space is relatively small for a three-bedroom, three-bathroom home on such a large lot, which may feel restrictive for buyers seeking grander room scales.
The property features a rear hillside that requires specialized concrete drainage systems, which can limit the amount of usable flat yard space and may necessitate ongoing maintenance of the slope.
