Condition Analysis

OVERALL CONDITION SCORE

Good
TeardownExcellent

Property is move-in ready.

This property, built in 1959, has undergone significant and recent upgrades, making it largely move-in ready. The description notes 'new paint inside and out' and a 'Modern So-Cal Beach' décor. The main kitchen features high-end stainless steel appliances (e.g., Sub-Zero refrigerator), granite countertops, and modern lighting, suggesting a renovation within the last 5-15 years. The second kitchen is also updated with white shaker cabinets and subway tile. Living areas boast hardwood floors and contemporary finishes. The exterior, including the infinity pool and spa, appears well-maintained and luxurious. While some bathrooms, particularly the lower-level one with its blue tub and dated tile, show signs of being older than 15 years, they are clean and functional. The presence of solar panels indicates modern system upgrades. The overall condition is strong, but the dated elements in some bathrooms prevent it from reaching an 'Excellent' score, which would require virtually all components to be new or recently renovated.
