Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1948, the property is described as 'move-in condition' and 'well maintained' with hardwood floors and central air conditioning. However, the visible bathroom is significantly dated with a beige fiberglass tub/shower insert, an older vanity, and dated light fixtures. The absence of kitchen photos suggests it is likely also outdated. While functional, the home shows clear signs of age and would benefit from minor updates to bring the kitchen and bathrooms to a more contemporary standard, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria.
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 11462, living area = 1005.
Elementary School: Valley View Elementary School (10/10). Middle School: Rosemont Middle School (9/10). High School: Crescenta Valley High School (9/10).
