More Insights

Built in 1940 (85 years old).
Condition: Despite being built in 1940, this property has undergone extensive and high-quality modern renovations, particularly in the kitchen and bathrooms, which appear virtually new. The kitchen features soft-close cabinetry, stone countertops, herringbone tile backsplash, and quality matte-finish appliances. Bathrooms are tastefully renovated with timeless tile, frameless glass shower doors, and a soaking tub. Crucially, a detached guest casita was permitted in 2022, making it essentially new construction with a full kitchen, walk-in shower, and mini-split HVAC. Original hardwood floors are well-maintained, and the finished basement adds modern living space with dual-pane windows. These comprehensive updates, especially the very recent casita, align with the 'extensively renovated within 5 years' criteria for an excellent rating, ensuring minimal deferred maintenance in key areas.

Pros & Cons

Pros

Detached Guest Casita with Income Potential: A newly permitted (2022) 432 sqft casita with a full kitchen, mini-split HVAC, in-unit laundry, and separate address offers significant flexibility for guests, extended family, or rental income.
Historic Charm with Modern Renovations: The property beautifully blends timeless Spanish Revival architecture with thoughtful modern updates in the kitchen and bathrooms, while preserving original details like hardwood floors and custom leaded glass.
Exceptional Outdoor Entertainment Space: The secluded backyard is an entertainer's paradise, featuring a custom built-in spa, firepit, covered cabana with lighting and fan, and lush landscaping.
Desirable Historic Neighborhood: Nestled in 'The Wood Streets,' a magnificent tree-lined neighborhood rich with historic charm, offering a highly sought-after community feel.
Additional Finished Living Space & Views: Includes an estimated 400 sqft finished basement (not included in listed square footage) providing extra versatile living area, plus a private second-floor deck with Mt. Rubidoux views.

Cons

Limited Central Cooling System: While the casita and one bedroom/office have mini-split systems, the main residence does not explicitly mention central air conditioning, which could be a comfort concern during warmer months.
Age-Related Maintenance Considerations: As a 1940-built home, despite modern updates, potential buyers should anticipate ongoing maintenance typical of an 80+ year-old property, such as plumbing, electrical, or roof systems.
Unfinished Basement Area: A 'separate bedroom-sized unfinished basement' offers storage but also represents an uncompleted project or additional investment for a buyer to fully utilize its potential, such as adding a bathroom.
