Just Listed – Am I Hot Or Not?
Yep. There’s another group of new properties that have made it onto my just-listed radar. So I thought I’d alert you to a few. Just for kicks, I’m going to rate these based on price, curb-appeal, and location. Feel free to add in your own comments on what you think.
Playa Del Rey
7742 Redlands Ave., D1043/2bd, 2bth/$429,000
Price: Hot Curb Appeal: Hot Location: Lukewarm
Scoop: This property is priced fairly well with the current condo market in Playa del Rey and is in line with recent sales in the area. The remodel looks good for the most part, with features like recessed lighting and granite countertops. It’s hard to tell exactly where in the complex this property is (ground floor, perhaps?), but the building is much like the others in the neighborhood, offering a pool, gym, and tennis courts.
Playa Vista
5350 Playa Vista Dr., #25/2bd, 2bth/$809,000
Price: Lukewarm Curb Appeal: Hot Location: Lukewarm
Scoop: It’s not the steepest price for a townhome in the community. It’s not the most reasonably priced either. You’re getting the usual high-end finishes like granite countertops and modern architectural design that’s prevalent in the area. Unless someone has lived in Playa Vista and trashed the place, most homes have good curb appeal here. As far as locale, I’m going to say lukewarm. Yeah for the views! But you’re north of Jefferson, which puts you a tad bit away from the rest of Playa Vista – where it’s easier to walk to the parks, library, and other amenities.
Westchester
7625 Dunfield Ave./3bd, 2bth/$775,000
Price: Lukewarm Curb Appeal: Hot Location: Lukewarm
Scoop: This home is priced a notch below what another nearby three-bedroom, two-bath home recently sold at. But its square footage is smaller and it’s right in the ballpark of where it should be. I dug up the square footage at PropertyShark.com – it’s 1,423 square feet. What can I say? This place looks appealing. The landscaping, interior and exterior finishes look pristine and inviting. As far as location, this property is just a bit east of Loyola Marymount. It sits on a corner lot. It’s a good area, but 77th St., which flanks the side of the property, does get more traffic.
