More Insights

Built in 1981 (44 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1981, features a recently remodeled kitchen with modern white Shaker cabinetry, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a farmhouse sink, which is in excellent condition. However, the overall description explicitly states the Tudor-style residence is 'Ready to be further improved with your personal touch or completely replaced,' indicating that while functional, it is not considered fully updated or move-in ready without significant additional investment. Other interior images, such as the living room with older carpet and traditional fireplace, suggest that many areas of the home are dated. The lack of specific details or images for bathrooms prevents a full assessment, but the general tone implies they are not newly renovated. The property falls into the 'Fair' category because it is aged but maintained, with a notable recent kitchen update, yet the house as a whole shows signs of being outdated and requires further updates or a more extensive renovation/replacement to align with current luxury standards, especially given the significant land value and development potential.

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 = 76230, living area = 3996.
Expansive & Usable Land: The property boasts over 1.75 acres of flat, open, fully gated, and fenced land, providing a rare and versatile canvas for various developments and an exceptional sense of space and privacy.
Equestrian & Development Potential: Designed for an equestrian-oriented lifestyle, the estate offers ample room for a barn, pens, turnouts, an arena, a resort pool, spa, and outdoor kitchen. Crucially, architectural renderings and pre-development work (topography map, survey, soil testing) are already completed, significantly de-risking future projects.
Exclusive & Private Location: Situated at the end of a long, private road in one of San Juan Capistrano’s most exclusive neighborhoods, the property offers a secluded hideaway feel while maintaining convenient access to city amenities and beaches.
Direct Trail Access: A unique advantage is the direct access to over 60 miles of scenic riding trails, connecting to Salt Creek Beach, historic districts, and golf courses, perfect for outdoor enthusiasts and equestrian activities.
Remodeled Kitchen & Spacious Interior: The residence features a generously remodeled kitchen with white Shaker cabinetry, quartz countertops, and stainless steel appliances, complemented by a spacious 3,996 sqft layout, a double-height foyer, and a luxurious primary suite.

Cons

Significant Renovation/Replacement Needed: The description explicitly states the 1981-built Tudor-style residence is 'Ready to be further improved with your personal touch or completely replaced,' indicating that substantial additional investment will be required to modernize the home or build a new custom estate to fully realize the property's potential.
Substantial Additional Investment Required: While offering immense development potential for equestrian facilities, a custom home, and luxury amenities, realizing these dreams will necessitate a significant financial commitment beyond the initial purchase price, which may deter buyers seeking a move-in ready luxury property.
Specific Architectural Style: The existing Tudor-style architecture, while described as beautiful, represents a distinct taste. For buyers envisioning a modern custom home or a different aesthetic on such a prime lot, the current structure might be viewed as a tear-down, adding to the overall project scope and cost.
