Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1996, this 28-year-old property falls into the 'Fair' category as it exceeds the 20-year threshold without a recent full renovation. While the home is well-maintained with granite countertops and custom cedar siding, the interior finishes—such as the glass block windows, carpeted living areas, and 90s-style wood trim—are dated and will likely require cosmetic updates and system inspections to meet modern standards.
This custom-built home features high-end design elements including a dramatic floating staircase, an elegant interior waterfall feature, and a sunken living room that provide a sophisticated and one-of-a-kind aesthetic.
The property includes an additional 1,686 square foot lot, offering a total of over 7,000 square feet of land surrounded by mature pine and oak trees, providing rare privacy and space for a coastal residence.
The luxurious primary retreat is exceptionally well-appointed with soaring ceilings, a private deck, a large walk-in closet, and a spa-inspired bathroom featuring a soaking tub and double vanity.
Lot size discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing lot size in square feet =5444, other record lot size in square feet = 1686.
The cedar wood siding, while offering timeless character, requires more frequent and costly maintenance and staining compared to modern composite materials to withstand the coastal California climate.
Despite its location in a premier coastal town, the property lacks ocean views, with vistas limited to the surrounding neighborhood and woods, which may affect its competitive positioning at the million-dollar price point.
