The exterior boasts brand new stucco and modern landscaping, enhancing curb appeal. While the listing notes 'fans in each bedroom' and does not explicitly mention central air conditioning or comprehensive updates to all major systems (like plumbing/electrical) for a 1953 home, the visible and described renovations are so thorough and recent that the property presents as virtually new, meeting current quality standards with no deferred maintenance.

Absence of Central Air Conditioning: Despite extensive remodeling, the property lacks central air conditioning, which is a significant comfort feature and a common expectation for homes in Southern California, especially when comparables offer it.
Unspecified Major System Updates: While cosmetic updates are evident, the description does not explicitly detail comprehensive upgrades to critical older systems like plumbing or electrical throughout the entire house, which could be a concern for a 1953-built home.
Unpermitted/Uncounted Sunroom Square Footage: The sunroom, while adding usable space, is explicitly stated as 'not included in the sqft of the house.' This can lead to issues with appraisal, financing, and may not be fully reflected in the property's official value.
