Key Modern Upgrades: Significant updates include installed air-conditioning and newer dual-pane windows, providing improved comfort and energy efficiency for residents.

Family-Friendly Layout & Lot Size: With four bedrooms and two bathrooms across 1420 sqft of living space on a 6000 sqft lot, it provides a practical and comfortable layout suitable for families.
Exceptional School Proximity: The home is just steps away from Paularino Elementary School (rated 7) and within close proximity to other highly-rated elementary schools, a major draw for families.
Cons
Age of Property: Built in 1962, the property's age, despite some updates, may suggest potential for older underlying systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical, roof) that could require future attention or investment.
Lack of Specific Views: The property description explicitly states 'view: None,' which could be a drawback for buyers seeking scenic vistas, especially in a coastal California market.
Limited Bathroom Updates Mentioned: While the kitchen has newer granite, there is no mention of updates to the bathrooms, implying they may be original or dated and could require renovation to meet modern buyer expectations.
