About This Home

As of April 2026

Opportunity knocks in the heart of Whittier! Located in the desirable 90605 zip code, 13718 Busby Drive presents a rare chance to transform a classic 1955 home on an expansive 9,339 sq ft lot. This 3-bedroom, 1-bath residence offers 1,220 sq ft of living space and is ready for your vision. Featuring plaster walls, original hardwood floors, and a functional layout, this home has solid bones but will require renovation. Recent improvements include a newer forced air furnace and central air conditioning unit, while the roof is approximately 15 years old. Two car attached garage with an automatic garage door opener and convenient direct access into the house. The oversized rectangular backyard provides endless potential for expansion, ADU possibilities, or creating your dream outdoor retreat, like cabana, pickleball court or even a pool or all three. This property is ideal for contractors, investors, flippers, or buyers looking to build equity in a well-established neighborhood. Bring your tools and imagination—this is a true fixer with great bones and incredible upside!
