Property is move-in ready.
The property underwent an extensive restoration in 2015, which falls within the 5 to 15-year window for a 'good' rating. The home is move-in ready and features a high-end chef's kitchen with a large natural stone island, stainless steel appliances, and custom cabinetry. The bathrooms are updated with modern vanities, designer tile flooring, and contemporary fixtures. While the aesthetic is high-quality and well-maintained, the renovation age and the 1921 original build date align with the 'good' criteria rather than 'excellent'.
This 1921 Dutch Colonial masterfully blends original architectural integrity with a comprehensive 2015 restoration, offering a high-end chef's kitchen and modern amenities within a protected historic district.
The property features a rare, oversized corner lot with a massive pool and significant value-add potential for a pool house or ADU, providing a versatile private oasis in a dense urban setting.
With five bedrooms including a sumptuous primary retreat with a private balcony and a flexible downstairs suite, the home easily accommodates multi-generational living, a home office, or a gym.
Being located within the Wilshire Park Historic Preservation Overlay Zone means any future exterior modifications or ADU construction are subject to rigorous city approvals and strict preservation guidelines.
While the corner positioning maximizes natural light, the increased street frontage may result in higher levels of ambient traffic noise and reduced perimeter privacy compared to mid-block properties.
