This property, comprising a main home built in 1954 and a guest house built in 1990, has undergone extensive and recent renovations. The listing highlights 'new roof, new plumbing, retrofitting, new insulation, new rain gutters, new heater, and newer appliances,' indicating significant investment in major systems. Both kitchens feature updated cabinetry, granite/quartz countertops, and stainless steel appliances, making them highly functional and aesthetically pleasing, though the main house kitchen has a slightly more traditional style. Bathrooms are also updated with modern fixtures and tiling. Hardwood floors in the main house are well-maintained, and the overall interior is clean and move-in ready. While not all components appear 'virtually new' as per the 'Excellent' criteria, the comprehensive updates to major systems and the well-maintained, updated interiors of both units firmly place this property in the 'Good' category, requiring no immediate renovations.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Income & Versatility Potential: The property features 'TWO HOMES ON ONE LOT!' and is zoned R-2, offering exceptional flexibility for multi-generational living, guest accommodations, or significant rental income opportunities.
Extensive Recent Upgrades: Significant capital improvements have been made, including a new roof, new plumbing, retrofitting, new insulation, new rain gutters, a new heater (relocated to attic), and newer appliances, minimizing immediate maintenance concerns for a buyer.
Prime Coastal Location: Located in a highly desirable Huntington Beach neighborhood, the property is close to shopping, parks, top-rated schools, and just minutes from the beach, enhancing its lifestyle appeal and investment value.
Well-Appointed Main Residence: The main home boasts gleaming hardwood floors, a light-filled living room with a bay window, French doors to a private courtyard, a 'cook's delight' kitchen with newer appliances and ample storage, and a spacious primary suite with a walk-in closet.
Functional Detached Guest House: The detached guest house provides a complete living space with 3 beds, 2 baths, separate laundry, an open-concept living area, kitchen, dining, and a breezy balcony, ideal for extended family or rental income.

Cons

Age of Main Home Structure: Despite extensive recent upgrades, the main home was built in 1954, which might lead to buyer concerns about the original structural integrity or older design elements not covered by the listed renovations.
Lack of Central Air Conditioning: While 'ocean breezes' are mentioned, the description does not specify a central cooling system, which could be a significant drawback for comfort during warmer periods in Southern California.
Corner Lot Considerations: Being on a corner lot, the property may experience increased traffic noise or reduced privacy compared to an interior lot, depending on the specific street activity and layout.
