Desirable Outdoor Space & Views: The property boasts lush landscaping, dedicated entertaining areas, and incredible views of City Lights, Hills, Neighborhood, and Trees/Woods from a private setting.

Cons

Age of Construction (1995): While extensively upgraded, the property's original build year of 1995 may mean some underlying design elements or systems are not as contemporary as new construction.
Lack of Explicit Central Air Conditioning: Despite numerous listed upgrades, the description does not explicitly mention a central air conditioning system, which could be a significant comfort consideration for buyers in a warm climate.
Ongoing HOA Fees: The property is subject to a monthly association fee of $87, which, while reasonable for the amenities, represents an ongoing recurring cost for homeowners.
