More Insights

Built in 1935 (91 years old).
Condition: Despite being built in 1935, this property has undergone significant and thoughtful modern improvements, making it move-in ready. The kitchen features updated white shaker-style cabinets, stainless steel appliances, and modern countertops, along with recessed lighting and skylights. The primary bathroom boasts a spa-like tub and a luxurious stall shower, indicating recent upgrades. While some elements like the primary bath vanity or a secondary bathroom's tiled counter might not be ultra-modern, they are well-maintained and functional. Flooring (hardwood, carpet, tile) appears in good condition throughout. The property also benefits from owned solar and EV charger readiness. The overall condition, particularly the key areas of kitchen and bathrooms, aligns with a 'Good' rating, indicating extensive renovations within the last 5-15 years, even if not a full 'virtually new' overhaul.

Cons

MLS Listing Discrepancy: Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 3270, other record living area = 2080. Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 5, other record bedroom count = 4.
Age-Related Maintenance Considerations: As a 1935 build, despite modern improvements, potential buyers may need to consider ongoing maintenance or future upgrades to original systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical) not explicitly detailed as updated.
Lack of Mentioned Cooling System: The property description does not specify a cooling system (e.g., central AC), which could be a significant consideration for comfort during warmer months in California.
Specific Bedroom Configuration: The main floor features 'charming double bedrooms with a shared door,' which, while flexible, might not suit all family configurations seeking completely independent bedroom spaces.
