Cons

Age of Property: Built in 1969, while updated, the property's age may imply some original systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical) that could require future maintenance or upgrades not explicitly mentioned.
Potential Lack of Central AC: The description highlights the 'enviable climate' but does not mention a cooling system, which is common for homes of this era and could be a drawback during hotter periods.
Limited Usable Yard Space: The lot size of 5662.8 sqft, coupled with the mention of a retaining wall, suggests a potentially smaller or tiered backyard, which might limit flat, usable outdoor space beyond the deck.
