More Insights
Built in 1923 (102 years old).
Condition: Built in 1923, this home is over 100 years old. While described as 'very clean and well-kept,' the images reveal significantly dated interiors. The kitchen features original-style wood cabinets, tile countertops, older black appliances, and dated flooring/wallpaper, suggesting no renovation in 30+ years. The bathroom, while tiled, also presents a dated style (likely 15-30 years old) with a pedestal sink. Other areas show older carpets, popcorn ceilings, and the presence of window AC units, indicating a lack of modern cooling systems. The property is functional but requires substantial cosmetic and system updates to meet current quality and style standards.

Pros & Cons
Pros
Great Schools: High School: Middle College High School (9/10).
Prime Location & Accessibility: Located in Los Angeles, CA, with excellent proximity to a wide array of amenities including shopping, parks, entertainment, grocery stores, schools, banks, and restaurants, enhancing convenience and lifestyle.
Well-Maintained Condition: Described as 'very clean and well-kept,' suggesting the property has been cared for, potentially reducing immediate maintenance concerns and offering a move-in ready appeal.
Functional Single-Story Layout: A single-story home with 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, offering practical living space, an inside laundry area, and a desirable layout for various demographics, including those seeking accessibility.
Detached 2-Car Garage: Provides valuable off-street parking, additional storage, and potential for future conversion or accessory dwelling unit (ADU) possibilities, adding significant value in the Los Angeles market.
Decent Lot Size: A 4,802 Sq. Ft. lot offers adequate outdoor space for gardening, recreation, or potential expansion, which is a good asset in an urban environment like Los Angeles.
Cons
MLS Listing Discrepancy: Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 3, other record bedroom count = 2.
Advanced Age of Property: Built in 1923, the home is over a century old, which may indicate the presence of outdated systems (plumbing, electrical), potential for lead paint or asbestos, and a higher likelihood of requiring significant capital expenditures for modernization or structural updates.
Low-Rated Local Schools: Several nearby schools, including the closest elementary and high schools, have low ratings (mostly 1s and 2s), which could be a significant deterrent for families prioritizing strong educational institutions.
Lack of Modern Amenities/Updates: The description does not mention central air conditioning or recent major renovations to key areas like the kitchen or bathrooms, which buyers often expect in a competitive market, especially for a home of this age.
