The property, built in 1988, is well-maintained but shows clear signs of its age, particularly in the visible casita bathroom with its almond-colored tub and dated tile work. While the main kitchen features custom cabinets and marble, these elements, if original or from an older renovation, would likely be considered outdated by current aesthetic standards. The overall style, including some light fixtures and flooring, suggests the home has not undergone a major renovation in the last 15-30 years. It is functional and appears to have been regularly maintained, but requires minor updates to modernize its interior finishes and bring it up to contemporary standards.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Exceptional Location & Panoramic Views: Situated in the coveted Lemon Heights neighborhood at the top of Foothill Ave, offering 'top of the world' panoramic city lights, hills, and West Tustin views from multiple vantage points.
Custom Spanish Architecture & Design: A unique custom-built Spanish-style home (1988) featuring elegant interior details such as beamed ceilings, marble accents, and porcelain marble flooring, providing distinct character.
Versatile Detached Casita: Includes a separate casita with porcelain marble floors, a full bathroom, and a kitchenette, offering excellent flexibility for guests, a home office, or potential rental income.
Luxurious Primary Suite & Ensuite Bathrooms: The primary bedroom boasts a 2nd-story patio with views, an ensuite bathroom with dual vanity, walk-in shower, and separate tub, plus all additional bedrooms have attached full bathrooms.
Gourmet Kitchen & Dedicated Laundry: Features a well-appointed kitchen with custom cabinets, marble countertops, a powered center island, and built-in appliances, complemented by a dedicated 2nd-level laundry room.

Cons

Absence of Mentioned Cooling System: The property description details a gas fireplace but does not mention a central air conditioning system, which could be a significant consideration for comfort during warmer months in Santa Ana.
Multi-Level Accessibility: Entry requires navigating steps from the gated driveway to the front porch or stairs from the ground-level garage to the main living area, potentially posing accessibility challenges for some buyers.
Property Age (1988): While well-maintained, the 1988 construction date suggests that some major systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical, roof) may be original or nearing the end of their typical lifespan, potentially requiring future capital expenditures.
