Pros & Cons

Pros

Extensive & Permitted Remodel: The property has undergone a full, professional remodel with all improvements fully permitted, including upgraded copper plumbing, updated electrical systems, new roofing, and modern HVAC, ensuring quality and peace of mind.
Luxurious Primary Suite: Features a newly designed, high-end primary bathroom with heated floors, custom cabinetry, limestone countertops, dimming mirrors, and a spacious 50x50 shower, complemented by a beautifully appointed walk-in closet.
Gourmet Kitchen with Premium Appliances: The kitchen is a chef's dream, equipped with top-tier appliances including a 6-burner Fulgor range, Kitchen Aid convection oven, Bosch dishwasher, and GE refrigerator, all set within custom cabinetry and Black Mist Granite countertops.
Versatile Flex Space & Finished Garage: Offers exceptional versatility with a 12x15 fully finished 'flex room' featuring its own plumbing and separate entrance (ideal for ADU potential or home office), plus a fully finished, insulated, and air-conditioned garage.
Desirable Location & Outdoor Enhancements: Situated in the highly sought-after 'South of Conant' area near a park on a wide street, the property boasts a well-designed backyard with 550 sqft of new porcelain pavers and dedicated, irrigated gardening areas.

Cons

Modest Interior Square Footage: At 1273 sqft for a 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home, the interior living space is relatively compact, which might be a consideration for buyers seeking larger homes at this price point.
Lack of Premium Views: While the property has a 'Neighborhood' view, it does not offer the more desirable panoramic ocean, city, or mountain views that can significantly enhance value and appeal in the Southern California market.
Original Construction Year: Despite extensive and permitted renovations, the home's original construction year of 1947 might still be a perceived factor for some buyers, even with all major systems updated to current codes.
