More Insights
Built in 1961 (64 years old).
Condition: Built in 1961, the property is described as well-maintained and recently repiped, making it move-in ready. However, the kitchen features dated light wood cabinets, speckled granite countertops, and older white appliances, indicating a renovation that is likely 15-25 years old or original components with minor updates. While functional, these elements are significantly outdated and would require substantial cosmetic updates to meet current quality standards. The bathroom, though not pictured, is likely similarly dated given the kitchen's condition and the property's age. The overall condition suggests regular upkeep but a need for minor to moderate renovations to modernize key areas.

About this home
Luxury Corner Unit with Stunning Views in the Heart of Westwood Village. Welcome to Park Westwood Towers, a classic New York-style high-rise designed by Victor Gruen, just one block from UCLA. This bright 2-bedroom corner unit features panoramic south- and east-facing views with large windows that fill the space with natural light. Recently repiped and well-maintained, it's move-in ready with the option to customize. A rare bonus: building management allows conversion of an existing closet into a second bathroom with shower, adding versatility and potential value. Resort-style amenities include a heated pool and spa, 24-hour doorman and concierge, elegant lobby, valet guest parking, gated covered parking, and onsite management. HOA dues cover nearly everything: utilities, high-speed internet, cable, insurance, laundry, and maintenance. All this in an unbeatable location, just steps from Trader Joe's, Target, restaurants, shopping, theaters, and more.

Panoramic Views & Bright Interior: As a corner unit, it boasts panoramic south- and east-facing views and large windows that flood the space with abundant natural light, creating a bright and inviting atmosphere.
Value-Add Potential: The property offers a unique opportunity to add significant value by converting an existing closet into a second bathroom with a shower, a conversion explicitly permitted by building management.

Cons
