More Insights
Built in 1978 (48 years old).
Condition: Built in 1978, this home has received cosmetic updates like contemporary flooring, fresh paint, and recessed lighting, making it move-in ready. The kitchen features stainless steel appliances, but the dark cabinetry and speckled countertops appear dated. Bathrooms are clean and functional, but their tile work and fixtures reflect an older style. The property analysis notes 'aging systems' and a 'lack of central air conditioning,' indicating that while maintained, major components are functional but show signs of being outdated or nearing the end of their expected lifespan, requiring minor updates or potential future repairs.

Excellent School Proximity: The property benefits from being in close proximity to highly-rated schools, including Abraham Lincoln Elementary (rating 8, 0.25 miles) and Paramount High School (rating 5, 0.46 miles), making it attractive for families.
Cons
MLS Listing Discrepancy: Lot size discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing lot size in square feet =6111, other record lot size in square feet = 6169.
Potential for Kitchen Modernization: While functional, the kitchen's 'dark cabinetry' may be considered dated by some prospective buyers, suggesting an opportunity for aesthetic updates to align with current design trends and maximize value.
Aging Systems (Implied by Year Built): Built in 1978, the home is over 45 years old. Key systems such as HVAC, plumbing, and electrical may be original or nearing the end of their typical lifespan, potentially requiring future investment for upgrades or replacement.
Lack of Central Air Conditioning: The description mentions ceiling fans but does not specify the presence of central air conditioning, which could be a significant comfort drawback and a desired feature for many buyers, especially during warmer California months.
