Cons

Age of Major Systems: Built in 1998, while interior updates are noted, the age of major systems such as HVAC, roof, and water heater is not specified, potentially indicating future maintenance or replacement costs.
Smaller Lot Size: The 2,771 sqft lot is relatively compact for a single-family residence, which may limit extensive outdoor activities, gardening space, or future expansion possibilities.
Lack of Explicit Central Air Conditioning: The property description does not explicitly mention a central air conditioning system, which could be a significant drawback for some buyers during hot Southern California summers.
