More Insights

Built in 1987 (39 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1987, has received significant functional updates such as Pex repiping, a new water heater, and a newly resurfaced pool. However, the kitchen features solid natural wood cabinets and blue pearl granite counters, which, while well-maintained and functional with high-end appliances (Thermador range, Bosch dishwasher), present a dated aesthetic. Similarly, the bathrooms are clean and functional but their styles (vanities, tile, lighting) appear to be from an older renovation or original, showing signs of being outdated. The absence of central air conditioning is also a factor. While major systems are in good condition due to recent updates, the overall aesthetic of key areas like the kitchen and bathrooms would require minor updates to meet current design preferences.

Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 3, other record bedroom count = 2.
Potential for Dated Interior Finishes: While solid, the 'natural wood cabinets' in the kitchen and the mixed flooring, including carpet upstairs, may not align with all buyers' preferences for fully modernized aesthetics.
Absence of Central Air Conditioning: Despite having a whole house fan, the property description does not mention central air conditioning, which could be a significant consideration for comfort during warmer Southern California months.
Monthly Association Fees: The property is subject to a monthly association fee of $122, which adds to the ongoing cost of homeownership.
