This was a strange one. The kitchen? Impeccable. Bedrooms? Impeccable. Bathrooms? Impeccable! Backyard? Eh, just okay. The current owners converted the 2-car garage to an office. WEIRD and awful. The homeless person living in the alleyway on the other side of the property wall isn't exactly a plus. And the liquor store on the corner isn't either.

Oh we had high hopes for this place. But once again, we left completely deflated and disappointed. We're thinking an elderly person had passed away and hadn't updated the house since the war (not the Iraqs, not 'Nam, maybe not even Korean). After the tall flight of stairs to get to the front door (there was a motorized chair along the wall for the past owner), we entered a small living room area. With the window open, we were treated to the loud roar of cars from Benedict Canyon Dr.

Off the living room was a bedroom with a huge walk-in closet with the scariest flickering brightest florescent lights you had ever seen. I couldn't even walk all the way in.

The bathroom off the bedroom had the smell of rank water (we later found out the house has water leak issues).

The kitchen was the size of my fingernail. And the formal living room was a weird wood-paneled semi-circle with windows aligning the top. The view from the windows delighted you with the top of a concrete retainer wall.

There was one flight of stairs up to an additional bedroom that had a faint smell of urine. I believe there was an additional bathroom up there too but I didn't stick around too long to remember one.

The "third bedroom" was supposedly off a separate entrance (maids quarters), but we never found it.

The only good thing going for this was that it came with an additional parcel of land, and the parcel next to that was available for sale too. But I doubt either of these parcels are easy to develop.
