Condition Rating
Good
Built in 1950, this property has undergone extensive modern renovations, particularly evident in the main house's kitchen which features contemporary white cabinetry, butcher block countertops, stainless steel appliances, and modern lighting. Newer Milgard low-E windows, dark hardwood flooring, and fresh paint contribute to a clean, move-in ready aesthetic. The addition of a modern ADU further enhances its appeal and functionality. While the visible updates are significant and recent, the lack of explicit information regarding major system updates (plumbing, electrical, and HVAC beyond the fireplace) for a home of this age, coupled with the 'as-is' clause for appliances and spa, prevents an 'Excellent' rating. However, its overall updated condition and readiness for occupancy firmly place it in the 'Good' category.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Income-Generating/Flexible ADU: The property includes an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU), highlighted as a 'brilliant design of efficiently used space,' offering potential for rental income, multi-generational living, or a dedicated home office.
Energy-Efficient Windows: Equipped with newer Milgard low-E windows, enhancing energy efficiency, reducing noise, and improving the overall comfort and aesthetic of the home.
Enhanced Outdoor Living: The backyard features a covered patio, a sandy play area, and a spa, providing excellent amenities for relaxation, entertainment, and family activities.
Desirable Neighborhood Location: Situated in a 'lovely neighborhood close to schools, shopping, and parks,' offering convenience and a strong community appeal.
Functional Main Kitchen: The main house boasts a 'spacious kitchen with abundant storage,' catering to practical daily living and culinary needs.

Cons

Appliances and Spa 'As-Is' Condition: All appliances and the spa are explicitly stated to be left 'with no warranties,' indicating potential immediate or future repair/replacement costs for the buyer.
Lack of Mentioned Cooling System: The description highlights a wood/gas burning fireplace for 'cozy evenings' but makes no mention of a cooling system (e.g., air conditioning), which could be a significant drawback in warmer months.
Older Property with Unspecified Major System Updates: Built in 1950, and while windows are new, there is no mention of updates to other major systems such as plumbing, electrical, or roofing, which may require future investment.
