* Subject property listed price vs sold prices of comps.
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1987 (37 years old), the property exceeds the 20-year threshold for 'Good' without evidence of a full recent renovation. The listing explicitly states it is 'ready for cosmetic updates' and being sold 'as-is,' which aligns with the Fair criteria for dated interiors needing minor repairs, evidenced by the missing ceiling fixture and original fireplace style.
Situated in the serene Monterey Hills, the property offers a peaceful, tree-lined retreat while maintaining close proximity to the trendy dining and cultural hubs of South Pasadena and Highland Park.
With 1,353 square feet of living area, this two-bedroom condo provides a spacious and open floor plan that is significantly larger than many comparable units in the Northeast Los Angeles market.
The unit features expansive views of the surrounding greenbelts, hills, and mountains, creating a tranquil atmosphere that feels removed from the urban bustle.
Lot size discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing lot size in square feet =216340, other record lot size in square feet = 216276.
