Save in Hollywood Hills

As per the MLS-
"DIRECTIONS: North of Franklin, East of Beachwood Drive
REMARKS: Tastefully remodeled Mid-Century home in historic Hollywoodland. Bright, open floor plan. Livrm w/granite fireplace; den/office w/bamboo flooring & sliding glass doors. Sleek kitchen w/CaesarStone counters & stainless steel appliances; upgraded baths w/natural stone counters & floors. Master suite w/skylight & French doors. Private patios & spa for outdoor entertaining. 2-car garage plus add'l parking. Conveniently located near Beachwood Village, restaurants, shops & studios. Move-In Perfect! "

Our take on it- This is a sweet home in a great, great area. It is quiet and unobtrusive from the front, and roomy and delicious once you are in the door. Bedrooms and office have gracious patio access. It was a pleasure to see a nifty renovation. (We see a lot of over priced hillside homes where "charm" is the excuse for uneven stairs, drafty windows, and tiring floorplans).

Listed for $988,000, this 2 BR 2 BA home seems like a neat way to live in The Hills without breaking the bank.

Buyers should always have a buyer's agent.

Opportunities Abound - Don't Believe the Naysayers

Opportunities Abound!

As per the MLS - "Gated NoHo Traditional on a large lot. 3 bedrooms and 1 bath with a total of 6 rooms. The zoning is more dense than other single family residences. There is a development opportunity to add on an extra unit or more units depending on the plans and preliminary items necessary for submittal to the city planning dept. Property needs TLC. Property is being sold as-is in present physical condition by institutional Trust with no warranties and is not a probate, short sale or REO. This is a trust sale and there will be NO court confirmation. Any buyer with cash or the ability to secure a new loan can purchase this property."

Our take on it - This home was on the market in 2006 for $940,000. It has a large lot, and curb appeal. it needs some TLC. (Don't they all?) Great place for first time buyers or downsizers. $298,000!
