Pros & Cons

Mid-Century Modern Appeal: The property is a 'gorgeous mid-century modern home,' appealing to buyers seeking this desirable architectural style.
Extensive Recent Upgrades: Significant capital expenditures have been made with new HVAC, plumbing, and a tankless water heater installed last year, reducing immediate maintenance concerns for a buyer.

ADU Development Potential: The large lot is ideal for building an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU), with plans available upon request, offering significant value-add or potential rental income.
Cons
Significant Price Adjustment: A substantial reduction from the original list price ($2.157M to $1.695M, over 21%) may raise questions about initial overpricing or market perception of the property's value.
Lack of Scenic Views: The property explicitly states 'view: None,' which could be a disadvantage in Altadena where mountain or city views are often a highly sought-after premium feature.
Age of Core Structure: Despite recent major system upgrades, the 1961 build year indicates an older core structure, which may imply other components or systems could require future attention or updates not explicitly mentioned.
