More Insights
Built in 1968 (58 years old).
Condition: Built in 1968, this property shows significant signs of age and has not undergone major renovations in decades. The kitchen features highly dated wood cabinets, tile countertops, and older appliances (except possibly the double oven), requiring a complete overhaul. All three bathrooms are also severely outdated with original-era fixtures, vanities, and flooring (including carpet in the master bath). The pervasive green carpet throughout the living areas and bedrooms, along with popcorn ceilings and dated light fixtures, further contribute to a condition that requires substantial rehabilitation to meet modern standards. While the home appears well-maintained and clean, the lack of a mentioned cooling system and the age of all major components (HVAC, electrical, plumbing) suggest significant deferred maintenance and substantial costs for a new owner to update.

Cons
MLS Listing Discrepancy: Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 5, other record bedroom count = 6.
Age of Property (1968): While well-maintained, the 1968 build year suggests that major systems (HVAC, plumbing, electrical) or certain finishes may be original or dated, potentially requiring future upgrades.
Lack of Desirable Views: The property explicitly states 'view: None,' which may be a drawback for buyers prioritizing scenic vistas or panoramic outlooks.
Absence of Mentioned Cooling System: The description notes a gas fireplace but does not mention an air conditioning system, which could be a significant comfort concern during warmer months in Southern California.
