Despite being built in 1955, this property has undergone significant and recent upgrades to major systems, including a new well, newer septic system, newer roof, and updated mechanicals. The kitchen features updated painted cabinets, a modern black sink and faucet, and functional appliances, though the overhead lighting is dated. Flooring throughout the living areas and bedrooms appears clean and well-maintained. The home is move-in ready with no immediate major renovations required, aligning with the criteria for a 'Good' condition score.
Pros & Cons

Pros

High Available Lot Utilization: The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 13939, living area = 957.
Extensive Recent Upgrades: The property benefits from significant recent investments including a new well, septic system, roof, and updated mechanicals, ensuring modern functionality and reduced immediate maintenance concerns.
Income & Lifestyle Flexibility: Offers strong potential for AirBnB or a second home, with appliances and even chickens conveying, providing unique lifestyle options and potential rental income.
Private Rural Setting with Views: Enjoy tranquil country living with usable land, a seasonal stream, ample privacy from neighbors, and gorgeous views from every window.
Financial Accessibility: Qualifies for favorable financing options including VA, FHA, and USDA zero-down grants, broadening the potential buyer pool.
Development & Energy Potential: The generous land size allows for potential ADU construction, and the all-electric home is prepped for easy solar panel installation, promoting future expansion and energy efficiency.

Cons

Remote Location & Commute: Situated in a rural area, requiring significant travel times (45-60 minutes) to major employment centers and urban amenities in San Diego.
Compact Interior Living Space: With 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, and 957 sqft, the interior living area is relatively small, which may not suit buyers seeking more expansive indoor space.
Older Core Construction: Built in 1955, the property's original structure is older, which, despite recent upgrades, could still present challenges related to insulation, layout, or unforeseen maintenance typical of homes from that era.
