Property is move-in ready.
Built in 1990, this expansive estate is move-in ready and demonstrates high-quality maintenance and strategic updates. The main residence features a chef's kitchen and a renovated primary spa bathroom, while the addition of modern systems like a ground-mounted solar array and specialized spa facilities indicates significant investment. Although the property is over 30 years old, the presence of two functional apartments and a massive, well-kept 6,000 sq. ft. bonus structure aligns with the 'good' criteria for well-maintained major systems and updated components.
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 271814, living area = 5995.
Elementary School: San Onofre Elementary School (9/10). Middle School: Mary Fay Pendleton Elementary School (9/10).
The estate features a main residence plus two separate, fully-equipped apartments (1BD/1BA and 2BD/3BA), providing exceptional flexibility for multi-generational living or significant rental income potential.
Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 5995, other record living area = 7995.
With nearly 12,000 square feet of total structures dating back to 1990, the property requires significant ongoing maintenance and potential capital investment to modernize aging systems.
The secluded location places the property several miles from the nearest schools, some of which have lower performance ratings, which may be a drawback for families prioritizing education access.
