About this House

Although the transaction was scuttled by the city report, this property remains a great opportunity for a buyer to earn "sweat-equity" in the highly-desirable Rowley Park area of the City of Gardena. This diamond-in-the-rough home sits in close proximity to major highways and freeways, including the I-105 to the north, I-110 to the east, and I-405 to the west. Also, the new Rams Stadium is about 10 minutes away. The city is home of the Gardena Jazz Festival and a northern gateway to the South Bay. One bedroom has exposed hardwood flooring; hence, there may be hardwood elsewhere in the home. There's a carport (or covered patio), a detached two-car garage, and possible RV parking space all accessed from the rear alley. Come one, come all who are willing to work with the city and give this home some TLC.
12915 Van Ness Ave, Gardena, CA 90249 is a 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom, 1,370 sqft single-family home built in 1957. It last sold for $500,000 on Jul 24, 2020. This property is not currently displayed as for sale or rent on Trulia. The Trulia Estimate is $743,900, with a rent estimate of $3,860/month.

    "What makes a neighborhood unique can be a mix of the people, culture, food, history, and everyday atmosphere. A neighborhood might stand out because of its local businesses, street art, music, sports culture, schools, or the way neighbors interact with each other. Some places feel unique because everyone knows each other, while others are known for diversity, nightlife, or traditions that have been around for "

    "Been here for 4 years and it's a great family neighborhood with parks near. We walk our dog every night and watch the improvements everywhere. People are buying up and remodeling houses on almost every block. Close to shopping, freeways, beaches, malls, stores. When you see them build 40 new $1 million dollar homes here- there's no doubt the area is up and coming."
