I bought my house about a year ago, and it's from 1979. I've been caught off guard by some maintenance issues I didn't anticipate. Are there any major tasks or checks I should keep in mind on an annual or biennial basis, especially for a house of this age?

Definitely keep an eye on your furnace air filter and make sure to clean those gutters regularly. Also, don’t forget to check shower drains for blockages. It's crucial to monitor where rainwater flows; it should always move away from your house. Those little details can save you from bigger problems in the long run!
Good tips! Clogged gutters wrecked my spring. I've started watching how water travels around my house more closely, not just from the front and back but also the sides.
