Cons

Age of Original Structure: Built in 1927, despite extensive remodeling, the underlying structure is nearly a century old, which may imply potential for unforeseen maintenance related to original infrastructure not explicitly updated.
Canyon Environment Specifics: While offering charm and nature, canyon living can present unique challenges such as winding access roads, potential for natural hazards (e.g., mudslides, fire risk, even with mitigation mentioned), and potentially less direct access to certain urban amenities compared to flatter areas.
Split-Level Bedroom Configuration: The primary suite is located on the lower level, separate from the two upstairs bedrooms. While offering privacy, this multi-level layout might not be ideal for all buyers, particularly those with mobility concerns or families with young children who prefer all bedrooms on one floor.
