Good

Despite being built in 1950, this property has undergone significant and recent updates to key systems, including owned solar panels, a tankless water heater, and a newer air conditioning and heating unit. The interior boasts hardwood flooring throughout, newer kitchen appliances, and a primary bathroom that appears recently renovated with modern finishes. While the galley kitchen layout and the distinct style of one bathroom might not be universally appealing or brand new, the home is move-in ready, well-maintained, and its major components are functional and within their expected lifespan, aligning with a 'Good' condition.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Prime Location & Views: Situated in a beautiful Altadena neighborhood, the property offers desirable city and park views with a serene, park-like setting overlooking Mount Lowe Park.
Flexible & Expanded Living Space: Beyond the 2 bedrooms, the home includes a versatile den (potential 3rd bedroom) and a bonus room perfect for a home gym or office, plus an additional bathroom attached to the subterranean garage.
Significant Energy Efficiency Upgrades: Benefits from owned solar panels, a tankless water heater, and a newer air conditioning and heating unit, promising substantial utility savings and modern comfort.
Modern Interior Comforts: Features hardwood flooring throughout, newer kitchen appliances, and a luxurious primary suite complete with a dressing area, skylight, and walk-in shower.
Exceptional Outdoor Entertainment Area: Boasts a huge, private backyard with multiple spacious concrete and arroyo stone patios, ideal for large gatherings and enjoying the mature trees.

Cons

Galley Kitchen Layout: Despite having newer appliances, the 'galley kitchen' design may not appeal to all modern buyers who typically prefer open-concept living and larger, more integrated kitchen spaces.
Mid-Century Construction (Potential for unseen issues): Built in 1950, while many updates are noted, the age of the original structure could imply potential for older systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical beyond HVAC) that may require future attention or upgrades.
Subterranean Garage Characteristics: The subterranean double garage, while functional and including a bathroom, might present accessibility considerations or lack natural light compared to an above-ground garage, which some buyers might prefer.
