Terraced Backyard Limitations: The terraced backyard, while offering views, may limit flat usable space for certain recreational activities and could require specific landscaping maintenance.
Lack of Explicit Cooling System: The description does not mention a cooling system (e.g., air conditioning), which could be a drawback for some buyers, especially during warmer months in California.
