Pros & Cons

Pros

Extensive Modern Upgrades: The home is described as 'turnkey' and 'saturated with upgrades,' including a remodeled kitchen with quartz counters, modern black/white theme, remodeled bathrooms with custom niches, new flooring, tankless water heater, and a new electrical panel.
Prime Location & Accessibility: Situated at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, within walking distance to The Quad shopping center, and minutes from 605 freeway access, offering convenience and a peaceful setting.
Enhanced Energy Efficiency & Comfort Features: Dual-paned windows with custom plantation shutters, a whole house fan, and a SmartReady tankless water heater contribute to comfort and potentially lower utility costs.
Key Infrastructure Updates: Recent replacement of the main sewer line and a newly installed 200 amp electrical panel with a 100 amp garage subpanel (ready for EVs/workshop) address common concerns in older homes.
Versatile Outdoor Space & Ample Parking: A large rear yard offers an 'open canvas' for potential ADU or BBQ area, complemented by a long driveway and a 2-car garage providing extensive parking for vehicles, RVs, or boats.

Cons

Absence of Central AC: While a whole house fan is present, the property description does not mention central air conditioning, which could be a significant drawback for comfort during hot summer months in Southern California.
Undeveloped Rear Yard: Described as an 'open canvas,' the large rear yard currently lacks established landscaping or features, requiring significant investment and effort from the new owner to develop.
Age of Original Structure: Built in 1952, despite extensive interior remodels and some infrastructure updates, the underlying structure is over 70 years old, which could lead to unforeseen maintenance or repair needs not covered by the current upgrades.
