About This Home

As of September 2024

Investment opportunity situated on a 15,000+ square foot lot in an absolutely fabulous San Marino neighborhood. Characterized by well-maintained properties at this location, this charming 1950s home is wonderfully situated along the north side of the lovely tree-lined Montecito Drive. Measured at 2,368 square feet, the opportune floor plan features a lovely foyer, and a spacious formal living room showcasing hardwood floors, a handsome fireplace, and fantastic natural light. The home contains three nicely sized bedrooms, three full bathrooms, and a large family room which opens out to a covered back porch/patio. A sizable kitchen with stainless steel appliances and a plethora of cabinetry, is adjoined by a nice formal dining room. A separate utility/laundry room adjacent to a side service entrance completes the floor plan. The expansive grounds currently contain an abundance of fruit trees, patio space, a storage shed, a 2-car garage, and a long driveway for additional parking (or useful underdeveloped space). The home features a newer roof and a convenient staircase to a California basement. Given a little TLC, this home, in this neighborhood, with the appeal and the details that already exists, has fantastic potential.
