Condition Rating
Poor
Built in 1951, this property shows significant signs of age and lack of modern updates. The kitchen features extremely dated tile countertops, wood paneling, and older cabinets, requiring substantial renovation. Bathrooms are basic with dated tile and fixtures. The living areas are dominated by extensive wood paneling and dated tile flooring. While some appliances appear newer and a mini-split AC unit has been added, the overall aesthetic and core systems are likely well past their expected lifespan. Crucially, the unpermitted garage conversion into two extra bedrooms represents a significant defect that requires substantial rehabilitation or remediation to address legal and potential safety/structural concerns. This property is functional but requires substantial investment to modernize and rectify the unpermitted work.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Versatile Layout & Space: The property offers a functional 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom layout across 1,476 sq ft, providing flexibility for various living arrangements, including home office or multi-generational living.
Generous Lot Size: A spacious 6,100+ sq ft lot features a large backyard with mature landscaping, ideal for outdoor entertaining, gardening, or potential future improvements and expansion.
Desirable Location: Located in the heart of the San Fernando Valley, the home offers convenient access to shopping, dining, parks, and local schools, enhancing its appeal for families and commuters.
Well-Maintained Condition: Described as a 'well-kept residence' with an inviting living room and functional kitchen, indicating the property has been cared for and is move-in ready for many buyers.
Good School Access: The property benefits from proximity to several schools, including highly-rated options such as Northridge Academy High (rating 7) and Shirley Avenue Elementary (rating 5).
Cons
Unpermitted Garage Conversion: The attached garage has been converted into two extra bedrooms without the benefit of permits, which could lead to legal issues, require costly remediation, or impact financing and insurance.
Age of Property: Built in 1951, the home is older and may require significant updates to its core systems (e.g., electrical, plumbing, HVAC) and aesthetics to meet contemporary standards and buyer expectations.
Lack of Modern Upgrades: While well-kept, the description does not highlight recent major renovations or modern amenities, suggesting potential for buyers to invest in contemporary finishes and features to enhance value.
