Condition: This 1955-built home has undergone significant and tasteful updates, making it move-in ready. The kitchen features updated cabinetry, granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances, which, while not ultra-modern, appear to have been renovated within the last 5-15 years.

Cons
Age of Property: Built in 1955, despite visible updates, the underlying structure and potentially some core systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical beyond visible fixtures) may be older, which could lead to unforeseen maintenance or upgrade costs for a buyer.
Lack of Central Air Conditioning: While central forced air and heating are present, the description does not explicitly mention central air conditioning, which is a highly desired amenity in California's climate and for a property at this price point.
High Price per Square Foot: With a list price of $1.999M for 1380 sqft, the property commands a very high price per square foot, potentially narrowing the buyer pool and requiring a specific buyer who prioritizes location and updates over size.
