Condition Analysis
OVERALL CONDITION SCORE
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1908, the property is aged but appears maintained through regular upkeep. The kitchen and bathroom are functional but feature outdated styles, including older cabinetry, tile countertops, and vintage fixtures. While the home is livable, it lacks modern renovations, and the listing's emphasis on the large lot and development potential suggests the structure requires significant updating to meet current market standards.
PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES
- High Available Lot Utilization
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 7779, living area = 1090.
- Development Potential
The expansive 7,779 sqft lot is marketed as 'ready to build units,' offering significant upside for investors or developers looking to maximize density in a high-demand Los Angeles submarket.
- Generous Lot Size
Rare for the area, the nearly 7,800 sqft lot provides ample space for the addition of Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) or a large private outdoor oasis.
CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- Vintage Construction
Originally built in 1908, the home may require significant capital expenditures for modernizing structural, electrical, and plumbing systems to meet current building codes.
- School Performance
While schools are nearby, many of the assigned middle and high schools currently hold low performance ratings, which may impact long-term resale value for families.
