This architecturally stunning 1929 Spanish estate is in very good condition, having undergone thoughtful renovations that blend modern functionality with its historic charm. The kitchen features updated stainless steel appliances, quality stone countertops, and custom wood cabinetry, all in excellent working order and a style that complements the home. While not a sleek, ultra-modern renovation, it is highly functional and aesthetically pleasing. Visible flooring (hardwood and terracotta tile) and light fixtures are well-maintained and appropriate for the home's character. The property is move-in ready with no immediate renovation required. However, given its 1929 build year, and the property analysis noting potential age-related maintenance for underlying systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC), it doesn't quite meet the 'Excellent' criteria for a full, recent, top-to-bottom modern system overhaul, but it is clearly well-maintained and updated.
Pros & Cons

Pros

High Available Lot Utilization: The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 74052, living area = 4224.
Architectural Heritage & Unique Design: A historically significant Spanish estate designed by renowned architect Charles Dean in 1928, showcasing spectacular craftsmanship and unique details rarely found.
Comprehensive Recreational Facilities: The property boasts an extra-large heated pool with jacuzzi, a dedicated pool house, and a versatile tennis/pickleball court with a basketball hoop, offering extensive recreational options.
Expansive & Private Grounds with ADU: Situated on a generous 1.7-acre gated lot, ensuring significant privacy, and includes a studio-style ADU with a full bath and kitchenette, providing flexibility for guests or potential income.
Prestigious Location & Accessibility: Overlooking the exclusive Del Paso Country Club, the estate benefits from a prime location with convenient freeway access to downtown Sacramento and Roseville.
Ample Living & Entertaining Space: The main house offers approximately 4,224 sqft with 4 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, a full basement with an additional bath, and multiple outdoor entertaining areas like a large courtyard with a fountain and a patio with a fireplace.

Cons

Age-Related Maintenance & Systems: As a 1929-built property, potential buyers should anticipate ongoing maintenance requirements and possible need for updates to older systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical, HVAC).
High Upkeep for Extensive Amenities: The vast 1.7-acre lot and numerous luxury amenities (pool, court, ADU, pool house, elaborate landscaping) will incur substantial costs and effort for regular maintenance and upkeep.
Low-Rated Local Public Schools: The assigned elementary and high schools (Howe Avenue Elementary and Encina Preparatory High) have low public ratings, which may be a concern for families with school-aged children.
