Cons

MLS Listing Discrepancy: Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 2034, other record living area = 1395.
Lack of Mentioned HVAC System: The description does not specify the presence of a central air conditioning or heating system, which is a crucial amenity for comfort in Southern California's climate, especially for a home built in 1952.
Laminate Flooring Throughout: While durable, the 'durable laminate flooring' throughout the home might be perceived as a less premium finish compared to natural hardwood by some buyers, given the extensive modern remodel and price point.
Older Original Construction (1952): Despite the comprehensive remodel, the home's original construction year of 1952 means that underlying infrastructure (e.g., plumbing, electrical, foundation) could still be older, potentially leading to unforeseen maintenance or upgrade needs not covered by cosmetic renovations.
