Pros & Cons

Pros

Comprehensive Modern Upgrades: The property has undergone extensive recent renovations, including a new HVAC system (2020), new roof (2021), and a seismic retrofit (2020), ensuring modern comfort and structural integrity.
Advanced Energy Efficiency: Equipped with Tesla Solar panels (2021) and a Tesla Powerwall battery (2023), offering significant energy savings, reduced utility costs, and enhanced energy independence.
Designer Interior Finishes: Features luxury vinyl flooring, stone countertops, stainless steel appliances, soft-close cabinets, and recessed lighting, providing a contemporary and appealing aesthetic throughout.
Expansive & Landscaped Outdoor Space: Boasts a large, upgraded backyard with a stone-paved patio, artificial grass, mature fruit trees, and a newly paved front yard, ideal for entertaining and low maintenance.
Functional Open Concept Layout: The seamless flow between the living room, dining room, and kitchen creates an inviting and spacious environment perfect for modern living and entertaining.

Cons

Compact Interior Footprint: At 1380 sqft, the interior living space may be considered modest for some buyers, particularly those seeking more expansive rooms or additional square footage for future needs.
Absence of a Garage: While a two-car driveway is available, the property lacks an enclosed garage, which could be a disadvantage for buyers desiring covered parking, secure storage, or a dedicated utility/workshop area.
Original Construction Age: Despite comprehensive modern upgrades, the home's original construction date of 1948 means some foundational elements are older, which might raise long-term maintenance considerations for some buyers, even with the seismic retrofit.
