Property is move-in ready.
Although built in 1954, the property is move-in ready with significant modern system upgrades including owned solar, an EV charger, and mini-split A/C systems. The interior features fresh paint and a functional kitchen with granite countertops, suggesting a well-maintained condition consistent with a 5-15 year renovation cycle.
The property features owned solar panels, an EV charger, and notably carries no monthly HOA fees, offering significant long-term savings and modern convenience for the homeowner.
Despite its condominium classification, this detached home offers the privacy and independence of a single-family residence with no shared walls and two private outdoor living spaces.
Ideally situated in a highly desirable neighborhood with easy access to Hillcrest and Little Italy, the home is also within the boundaries of top-rated schools like Grant K-8.
With only 722 square feet of interior space for a two-bedroom configuration, the layout may feel restrictive for buyers seeking more generous room proportions or storage.
The home features only one bathroom, which can be a functional challenge for multi-occupant households and may impact resale appeal compared to homes with additional baths.
Enjoy the freedom and privacy of living like you're in a single-family home—with absolutely no HOA fees. Be in the middle of it all with easy access to Hillcrest, Little Italy, and all the shops, restaurants, and community charm that make Mission Hills a truly special place to call home.
