Condition Analysis
See Full ReportOVERALL CONDITION SCORE
Fair
TeardownExcellent
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1947, this 77-year-old home is well-maintained externally but described as having 'endless potential,' a common indicator of dated interior finishes. The lack of mentioned upgrades to the kitchen, bath, or major systems suggests the property is over 20 years since its last significant renovation and requires modernization.
PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES
- Prime Neighborhood Location
Situated in the highly sought-after South of Conant area of East Long Beach, the property offers exceptional value through its proximity to top-rated schools, parks, and local amenities.
- Significant Expansion Potential
The generous 6,135 sqft lot and detached garage provide a versatile canvas for future additions or an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU), allowing buyers to build equity and increase living space.
- Excellent Commuter Accessibility
Conveniently located near the 405, 605, and 22 freeways and the Long Beach Airport, this home is ideal for professionals seeking a central hub with easy regional access.
CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- Limited Living Area
At just 1,020 square feet with a 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom layout, the interior space may be insufficient for growing families or those requiring a modern multi-bath configuration.
- High Entry Price Point
The list price of $930,000 for a smaller, older home represents a high price-per-square-foot, which may challenge first-time homebuyers' budgets in a competitive market.
