Condition Rating
Fair

Built in 1964, this property appears well-maintained but shows significant signs of being outdated. The kitchen features wood cabinets, white tile countertops, and tile backsplash, consistent with a renovation from 25-40 years ago. Bathrooms also have dated wood vanities and tile. Flooring is primarily older carpet, and light fixtures are not modern. While clean and functional, the home requires minor updates to meet current aesthetic and quality standards, fitting the 'fair' condition criteria.
Pros & Cons

Pros

ADU Potential / Permitted Outbuilding: The property features an approximately 600 sq ft permitted outbuilding with a bathroom and potential kitchenette, offering significant flexibility for a workshop, craft room, home office, or potential Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) for added income.
Massive Master Suite: A standout feature is the enormous master suite, boasting ample windows, a very large walk-in closet, and a spacious bathroom with a full tub and shower, providing a luxurious private retreat.
Single-Story & Open Floor Plan: This desirable single-story home offers a great, open floor plan with a large kitchen and living room, appealing to a wide range of buyers seeking accessibility and modern living flow.
Extensive Workshop & Garage Space: Beyond the main house, the property includes a large garage with a dedicated workshop room, complemented by the separate permitted outbuilding, providing exceptional space for hobbies, storage, or professional use.
Desirable Location & Community Amenities: Located in Newbury Park, the area is highlighted for its great weather, reputable schools, and convenient proximity to shopping, enhancing the property's overall appeal and lifestyle benefits.

Cons

Age of Property / Potential for System Updates: Built in 1964, while the layout is described as open, the property's age suggests potential for older major systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that may require inspection or future updates, which are not explicitly mentioned as having been done.
Significant Price Reductions: The property has undergone multiple price reductions, from an initial $1.15M down to $1.05M, which could indicate initial overpricing or market resistance at previous price points, potentially signaling perceived value concerns.
Lack of Specific HVAC Information: The description praises the 'great weather' but does not explicitly mention the presence or type of a cooling system (e.g., central AC). For a 1964 home, the absence of modern HVAC could be a drawback for buyers, especially during warmer periods.
