More Insights

Built in 1948 (77 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1948, has been well-maintained with recently refinished hardwood floors and fresh paint. However, the 'updated' kitchen features dated blue tiled countertops and backsplash, along with white appliances that are functional but not modern. The bathroom, while clean, also appears to have an older style of tile and fixtures. These elements suggest renovations that are likely 15-30 years old, making the home functional and livable but aesthetically outdated in key areas, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria.

About this home

First time on the market since originally built. Rare single-family house on a corner lot in the heart of La Jolla Village. House was hand-built using quality materials and exemplifies a charming beach cottage. Enjoy all the benefits of single family, but also living in the heart of the vibrant village of La Jolla. You will love the front yard, side yard and completely private backyard, as well as garage and driveway for two additional cars. Peak ocean views from the property. House and exterior walls will be professionally painted this coming Monday! Zoned RS1-7 30 ft height limit which means 2nd story ocean view potential. Original hardwood floors were refinished recently. Entire inside has been freshly painted. Kitchen and main bathroom updated. House has been very well-maintained by the original owners. Fabulous opportunity to enjoy it as it is or remodel it to your liking. Unbeatable location and potential.

Ample Outdoor Space & Parking: Includes a front yard, side yard, a completely private backyard, a garage, and a driveway accommodating two additional cars, a valuable asset in the village.
