The interior features a modernized chef's kitchen with newer cabinetry, quartz countertops, and stainless steel appliances, alongside refinished hardwood floors and recessed lighting. Major systems have been fully updated, including a 200-amp electrical panel, updated plumbing, a tankless water heater, and the installation of central heating and air conditioning, resulting in a move-in ready home with no deferred maintenance.

PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES

    The 5,600 square foot R-3 zoned lot offers significant investment value, providing the rare opportunity to build multiple units or ADUs with convenient alley access.

  • Modernized Infrastructure

    The property features extensive system upgrades including a 200-amp electrical panel, updated plumbing, a tankless water heater, and central AC and heat for modern comfort.

  • Prime Old Torrance Location

CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES

  • Limited Living Space

    At only 792 square feet with a 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom configuration, the home's small interior footprint may not meet the needs of growing families or those requiring a home office.

  • High Price Per Square Foot

    With a list price of $925,000, the property commands a premium price per square foot, indicating that the value is heavily weighted in the land and zoning rather than the existing structure.
