Lack of Explicit Central Air Conditioning: The description highlights a fireplace but makes no mention of central air conditioning, a significant comfort feature often expected in a luxury home of this caliber in Southern California.
Niche Architectural Appeal: The distinct mid-century modern architectural style, while a strength for enthusiasts, may appeal to a more specific buyer demographic, potentially narrowing the overall market pool compared to more universally contemporary designs.
