More Insights
Built in 1921 (105 years old).
Condition: Built in 1921, this property is over a century old and requires substantial repairs and rehabilitation. The kitchen is severely outdated with tiled countertops, old cabinets, and no visible modern built-in appliances, necessitating a complete renovation. The single bathroom is equally outdated with old tiles, vanity, and fixtures. The property lacks central heating and cooling, relying on a window AC unit and a wall heater. The MLS description explicitly notes 'Extensive Renovation Needs' for major components including the kitchen, bathroom, electrical, plumbing, windows, and potentially the foundation. While not a tear-down, the home's current condition is very uncomfortable and requires significant investment to meet modern living standards.

Pros & Cons
Pros
Great Schools: High School: Middle College High School (9/10).
Prime Location & Accessibility: The property boasts a highly desirable location near Downtown LA, offering convenient access to major entertainment venues like Sofi Stadium, the Kia Forum, and YouTube Theater, with easy freeway access via Interstate 110.
ADU Potential & Large Backyard: A spacious, enclosed backyard presents significant potential for future development, including the addition of an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU), which can enhance property value and provide rental income, alongside ample space for entertaining.
Ample Off-Street Parking: The long, gated driveway provides valuable off-street parking for up to three cars, a significant advantage in the Los Angeles area where parking can be scarce.
Recent Essential Updates: The property benefits from a partial new roof and some fresh interior paint, indicating recent maintenance efforts that reduce immediate repair burdens for a new owner.
Competitive Market Positioning: Marketed as 'PRICED RIGHT' and 'Priced to Sell quickly,' the property appears to offer a competitive entry point for buyers in the Los Angeles real estate market.
Cons
Limited Bathroom Count: With only one bathroom for three bedrooms, the property may present functional challenges for families or multiple occupants, potentially necessitating future expansion or renovation.
Age of Property & Extensive Renovation Needs: Built in 1921, the home is over a century old. Despite some recent updates, it likely requires substantial investment in areas such as the kitchen, main bathroom, electrical, plumbing, windows, and potentially the foundation to meet modern standards and expectations.
Absence of Cooling System: The property description does not mention a cooling system (e.g., central air conditioning), which could be a significant comfort drawback and an additional cost for installation in Los Angeles's warm climate.
