Versatile 3-Car Garage with ADU Potential: A separate parcel includes a spacious 669 sq ft three-car garage with high cedar-beamed ceilings, offering significant potential for a studio, workspace, or future ADU (buyer to verify zoning).
Extensive Modern Upgrades: Recent capital improvements include new double-paned windows, a new red tile roof, updated heating system, and refreshed kitchen/bathroom, ensuring modern comfort and reduced maintenance.
Prime Location & Accessibility: Situated in a desirable Mount Washington/Highland Park cul-de-sac, offering excellent access to the Gold Line Metro, Mt. Washington schools, and vibrant local amenities.
Eco-Conscious Native Landscaping: A stunning, low-maintenance native California garden designed for water conservation, attracting local wildlife, and providing serene outdoor living spaces.

Cons

Compact Living Space: The main residence offers a very modest 540 sq ft with only one bedroom, which may be restrictive for some buyers and limits the target market.
Valuation Discrepancy: The listing price of $699,000 is significantly higher than the estimated value of $538,439.17, potentially raising concerns about market value and financing for prospective buyers.
Limited Bedroom Count: As a 1-bedroom home, it caters to a smaller demographic, potentially limiting its broad market appeal compared to properties with more bedrooms in the area.
