More Insights
Built in 1955 (71 years old).
Condition: Built in 1955, this vintage beach cottage is well-maintained with original oak floors and charming wood beam ceilings. While the bathroom has been updated with a granite countertop and vessel sink, its style suggests an update from 10-20 years ago rather than a recent, high-end renovation. The listing description explicitly notes a 'lack of modern interior upgrades' and implies the kitchen and other areas would require 'immediate investment' for a luxury buyer, indicating a need for minor updates to meet current standards.

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 = 9116, living area = 1620.
Great Schools: Elementary School: Del Mar Hills Elementary School (9/10). Middle School: Pacific Trails Middle (10/10). High School: Torrey Pines High School (9/10).
Prime Del Mar Village Location: Situated in the heart of Del Mar Village, offering exceptional walkability to fine dining, shopping, the library, and just a short stroll to the ocean, scenic parks, and sandy beaches.
Ocean Views: The property boasts desirable ocean views, enhancing its appeal and providing a quintessential coastal living experience.
Significant Development Potential: Sited on an all-usable 9000+ sq ft corner lot with explicit potential to add a detached or attached ADU, offering substantial future value and customization opportunities.
Entry-Level Price Point for Area: Marketed as the 'lowest price single family home in Old Del Mar' and an 'entry level price,' presenting a rare opportunity to acquire property in this highly sought-after neighborhood.
Charming Vintage Features & Bonus Spaces: Features include soaring wood beam ceilings, a brick fireplace, original oak floors, a bonus family room, and a detached office with built-ins, adding character and functional living areas.
Cons
Recently Sold Property: The property was recently sold within the past year on 2025-04-24. The sold price is $3,950,000.00.
Age and Potential for Updates: Built in 1955, the 'vintage' nature of the beach cottage implies potential for outdated systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) and a likely need for significant renovation to meet modern luxury standards.
Modest Current Living Space: With 1620 sqft, the existing home's footprint is relatively small for a luxury property on a 9000+ sqft lot in Del Mar, which may lead buyers to consider expansion or a complete rebuild.
Lack of Modern Interior Upgrades: While charming, the description highlights original features but does not mention recent high-end kitchen or bathroom remodels, suggesting these key areas may be dated and require immediate investment for a luxury buyer.
