More Insights

Built in 2003 (22 years old).
Condition: While the interior finishes, including the 'gourmet kitchen' with white shaker cabinets, stainless steel appliances, and hardwood floors, appear to be in good condition for a 2003 build, and the general aesthetic is appealing, the property is explicitly stated to have 'problematic geological and geotechnical issues.' These issues are so severe that sellers have been advised by consultants 'not to reside in the Property nor rent the Property to third parties.' This indicates significant defects affecting safety and structural integrity, rendering the property unsafe and unlivable in its current state, aligning directly with the criteria for a 'Poor' condition score, despite the cosmetic appeal.

About this home

Oceanfront property with stunning views of the Pacific Ocean and Linda Mar Beach. Located in Pacifica's coveted westside Pedro Point neighborhood, this 2-story, 3,910+/- sqft home sits on an oversized 9,180+/- sqft lot. The residence boasts a spacious layout with multiple bedrooms & bathrooms, a gourmet kitchen, ample storage and an attached 4-car garage as well as mature landscaping and a private backyard. NOTE: This property is priced below market value due to problematic geological and geotechnical issues that impact the use and desirability of the property. Sellers have engaged various soils consultants, geologists and geotechnical engineers to evaluate the condition of the property and there is related litigation pending against Sellers' predecessors in interest. Sellers have been advised by their geotechnical consultants not to reside in the Property nor rent the Property to third parties because of the geological and geotechnical issues. Due diligence is essential, and we recommend consulting legal and engineering professionals to assess the implications of these findings.
