Property is extensive renovation needed.
Built in 1959 and explicitly marketed as a 'Fixer Alert,' this property features highly dated interiors including popcorn ceilings, wood paneling, and original-style bathrooms and kitchen. While it has a new roof, the systems and finishes appear to be over 30 years old and require a full rehab to meet modern standards.
Situated in the sought-after West Torrance neighborhood, the property is close to award-winning schools, parks, and the beach, ensuring strong long-term value and desirability.
As a 'fixer' in a prime area, this home offers a rare opportunity for investors or owner-occupants to customize the space and build substantial sweat equity through renovation.
The property features a brand-new roof, providing a critical structural upgrade that reduces immediate capital expenditure and offers a solid foundation for further improvements.
The home requires comprehensive updates to the flooring, kitchen, and bathrooms, which will necessitate a significant additional budget and time investment.
Being sold in as-is condition may limit certain financing options and requires the buyer to assume all responsibility for existing repairs and deferred maintenance.
