Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 2002, this property is exceptionally well-maintained but falls into the fair category based on age and lack of recent full-scale renovation. The high-end finishes, including Tecate tile flooring, Talavera tile accents, and custom Alderwood cabinetry, are original to the 24-year-old construction and reflect an outdated aesthetic compared to current modern standards. While systems like the 4 HVAC units and owned solar are significant assets, the interior styling remains consistent with its original build date.
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 295336, living area = 7524.
This custom estate offers breathtaking panoramic western views from its elevated hilltop position, providing a sense of privacy and exclusivity in the prestigious Olivenhain area.
Situated on nearly 7 acres, the property provides rare space for additional amenities like stables, orchards, or sport courts, complemented by a resort-style pool and owned solar system.
Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 5, other record bedroom count = 2.
The sheer scale of the 7,500+ sq. ft. residence and nearly 7-acre lot, combined with complex systems like 4 HVAC units and custom finishes, implies significant ongoing maintenance costs and effort.
The heavy Spanish/Mediterranean styling and specific custom tile work may limit appeal to a specific buyer pool, as those seeking modern or contemporary designs might find the interior finishes dated.
