While it may not seem like it if you’re a frustrated home buyer, not every home sells above the asking price these days. 5402 w 149th #17 just closed escrow and is a
good example. It was priced very aggressively when it first hit the market at just under $950,000. That was a big number for this layout but stranger things have happened lately. After about 2 weeks on the market it was reduced to $899,000 and quickly went into escrow and closed for $889,610. Either way this is still an impressive number and clearly is still a seller’s market.
The D floorplan has a very nice living level with a fairly spacious living room that opens to the dining area and large kitchen. One of the biggest challenges to this layout is that the “guest” bath which services both the living level and one of the upstairs bedrooms is actually on the middle landing of the stairs between the two levels so it’s somewhat unusual but certainly works. Both bedrooms are upstairs with the guest bedroom using the bathroom below as mentioned.

the upper level. This is a fairly popular floorplan as most spaces and rooms are fairly large and the living room offers high ceilings giving it wonderful natural light. This home has been extensively updated and is not your typical original builder finishes. Some of the upgrades include incredible Miele appliances, including a 3-Door refrigerator/freezer/wine Display, 6 burner stove, cabinetry upgrades with custom storage, quartz countertops, acacia hardwood floors and more. The home has a 2 car attached garage. The only challenge with this unit is the location as it overlooks the So Cal Edison substation outside the Fusion property. The owners and the community have done an admirable job in hiding it but it’s definitely a presence.
