Condition Rating
Good

Despite being built in 1952, the listing explicitly states the home is 'updated and livable.' Images confirm significant interior renovations, particularly in the kitchen and bathrooms, which feature modern white cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, stone countertops, updated vanities, contemporary fixtures, and clean tiling. The flooring is a mix of well-maintained wood/laminate and carpet. While the underlying infrastructure is older, the visible updates make the property move-in ready with no immediate renovations required, aligning with the 'Good' condition criteria for a home extensively renovated within the last 5-15 years.
Pros & Cons

Pros

High Available Lot Utilization: The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 22781, living area = 2757.
Prime Location & Expansive Lot: Situated 'South of the Boulevard' on a rare, private, gated, and all-usable 23,000 sqft lot, offering significant desirability and space in Tarzana.
Exceptional Development Potential: Described as a 'developer's dream,' with versatile options for building ADUs, expanding the existing home, or constructing a new 10,000+ sqft residence.
Enhanced Privacy & Security: Features a park-like setting with walls on all sides and two gated entrances, providing superior privacy and security.
Desirable Recreational Amenities: Includes a gated pickleball/sport court with lights and an attractive mosaic-tiled pool, adding significant lifestyle value.
Mountain Views: The property benefits from desirable mountain views, contributing to its aesthetic appeal and overall value.

Cons

High Price Relative to Current Home's Condition: The listing price of $2.495M is substantial, and while the lot offers immense potential, the current 1952-built home, though 'updated and livable,' may not fully justify this price point without further significant investment or redevelopment.
Necessity for Major Investment for Modernization/Redevelopment: The property's primary value proposition lies in its development potential, implying that a buyer seeking a modern, high-end residence will likely need to undertake costly renovations, expansion, or a complete teardown and rebuild.
Older Home Infrastructure: As a 1952 build, the existing home may have older infrastructure or systems that could require ongoing maintenance or eventual replacement, even if cosmetically updated.
