The main bathroom is luxurious with porcelain tile, dual showers, and dual vessel sinks, indicating a very recent and high-end update.

The tankless water heater is another modern upgrade. The overall condition, particularly in the key areas of kitchen and bathrooms, meets current quality standards with no visible deferred maintenance, aligning with an 'Excellent' score for a recently and extensively renovated property.

Age of Core Systems: Built in 1964, despite cosmetic updates, core systems such as plumbing, electrical, and potentially HVAC (not explicitly mentioned as updated) may be original or older, potentially requiring future maintenance or upgrades.
Lack of Explicit Cooling System Details: For a Bakersfield property, the absence of specific mention of an updated or efficient air conditioning system is a notable omission and potential concern, given the extreme summer temperatures.
Potential for Unpermitted Additions: The description mentions a 'game room addition' and 'attic play area.' Without further verification, these additions could potentially be unpermitted or not up to current building codes, which might pose issues during inspection or future resale.
