More Insights

Built in 1922 (103 years old).
Condition: This 1922 California Cottage has undergone a 'stunning remodeled/reimagined' renovation, blending original charm with eclectic contemporary living. The kitchen is a 'Chef's kitchen' featuring custom cabinetry, quartzite leathered countertops, a hand-crafted zinc hood, and high-end Fisher & Paykel appliances, all appearing new and top-of-the-line in the images. Bathrooms are equally impressive, described as 'whimsical' and featuring 'floor to ceiling handmade tile,' double vanities, and oversized showers, with images showing modern fixtures and stylish tiling. European Oak floors are installed throughout. While the original build year is 1922, the extensive and high-quality renovation, including new flooring, appliances, and modern aesthetics in key areas, indicates that the property has been brought to a virtually new condition, meeting current quality standards with no deferred maintenance. The listing explicitly states '1st time on market has been this month,' reinforcing the recency of the renovation. The only minor omission is explicit mention of HVAC, but given the comprehensive nature of the remodel, it's highly likely to be updated.

Pros & Cons

Pros

Great Schools: Elementary School: Delevan Drive Elementary School (9/10).
Prime Eagle Rock Location: Situated on a 'well sought after street' in Eagle Rock, known for its strong community, local amenities (restaurants, coffee houses, shopping), and excellent school district.
Thoughtful Remodel & Design: A 'stunning remodeled/reimagined 1922 California Cottage' that masterfully blends 'original/old world charm & eclectic contemporary living' with restored original features.
Gourmet Chef's Kitchen: Features custom cabinetry, high-end Fisher & Paykel appliances, quartzite leathered countertops, a hand-crafted zinc hood, large island, and a convenient walk-in pantry.

Exceptional Outdoor Living & Privacy: Benefits from a corner lot ensuring 'peace, quiet and serenity,' a 'garden oasis' with diverse plantings, an entertainment deck, a dedicated artist studio/bonus space, and a firepit.

Cons

Potentially Misleading Days on Market: The listing explicitly notes that the property accumulated 'unnecessary days on market' due to a 'coming soon' status, which could create a perception of prolonged listing or underlying issues for some buyers.
Absence of Mentioned Central HVAC: While extensively remodeled, the description does not explicitly mention a central air conditioning or heating system, which could be a significant comfort concern for buyers in the Los Angeles climate, especially compared to fully updated comparable properties.
Potential for Unforeseen Costs in Older Home: Despite the remodel, the 1922 build year suggests potential for underlying infrastructure (e.g., plumbing, electrical, foundation) that may not have been fully updated or could require future attention, as comprehensive system upgrades are not detailed unlike some comparable listings.
