Condition Analysis
OVERALL CONDITION SCORE
Property is move-in ready.
The property is in move-in ready condition with significant recent interior updates, including a remodeled kitchen with stainless steel appliances and new flooring throughout. While the home was built in 1965, the bathrooms and main living areas show modern finishes and meticulous maintenance. It falls into the 'good' category rather than 'excellent' because it is a legacy property with some original structural elements and the listing suggests 'future upside' and 'value-add' potential, indicating it has not undergone a total top-to-bottom reconstruction.
PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES
- Great Schools
Elementary School: Killybrooke Elementary School (9/10).
- ADU & Flexible Space Potential
The massive bonus room located above the garage provides exceptional versatility, serving as an ideal space for a home office, creative studio, or a potential ADU conversion for rental income.
- Prime South Coast Metro Location
Situated in a high-appreciation pocket of Costa Mesa, the property offers unbeatable proximity to South Coast Plaza, trendy dining at The LAB, and convenient access to John Wayne Airport.
CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- Digitally Altered Presentation
The listing explicitly states that images have been digitally edited, which may lead to a discrepancy between the property's online appearance and its actual physical condition during an in-person tour.
- Aged Infrastructure
Built in 1965 and held by the same owner for over 40 years, the property likely requires updates to major systems such as plumbing, electrical, or HVAC that may not be reflected in the cosmetic interior refreshes.
