Cons

MLS Listing Discrepancy: Lot size discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing lot size in square feet =11325, other record lot size in square feet = 11463.
Recently Sold Property: The property was recently sold within the past year on 2025-05-27. The sold price is $1,515,000.00.
Original Construction Age: Built in 1978, the property's underlying structure is over 45 years old, which may raise concerns for some buyers regarding long-term maintenance or potential for unseen original infrastructure issues, despite extensive renovations.
Limited Scenic Views: While located in a desirable coastal area, the property offers a 'Neighborhood' view rather than panoramic ocean or significant natural scenic views, which can be a key differentiator and expectation for properties at this price point in Carlsbad.
Varying School Proximity: Although some top-rated schools are nearby, one of the listed middle schools (Pacific Trails Middle) is nearly 10 miles away, which could be a logistical consideration for families with children attending that specific institution.
