Property is move-in ready.
The property is exceptionally well-maintained and move-in ready, featuring high-end architectural details like vaulted wood ceilings and a resort-style pool area. While the 1988 build date is reflected in some dated elements like tile countertops and 'vintage-inspired' bathrooms, the home has received significant functional updates including owned solar, engineered hardwood flooring, a remodeled bathroom, and premium appliances such as a Sub-Zero refrigerator and a newer induction cooktop.
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 54885, living area = 3725.
The 1.26-acre estate offers a premier outdoor lifestyle featuring a luxury pool and spa with fire bowls, a fully-equipped outdoor kitchen, a bocce ball court, and owned solar for both the home and pool.
The property is uniquely positioned to capture sweeping, unobstructed views of the Pacific Ocean and surrounding mountains from nearly every room, providing a rare and high-value visual experience.
Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 3, other record bedroom count = 2.
While well-maintained, the 1988 construction includes 'vintage-inspired' bathrooms and extensive brick/wood detailing that may require modernization to meet the preferences of contemporary luxury buyers.
At 3,725 square feet, the three-bedroom configuration represents a low bedroom-to-square-footage ratio, which may be a drawback for larger families or buyers expecting more sleeping quarters at this price point.
