This Coastal Fixer-Upper Bungalow serves as a strategic Value-Add Asset listed at $584,000. While the current list price sits above the $518,790 Fair Market Value, the property offers substantial forced appreciation potential through comprehensive interior modernization. Holding a Condition Rating of 5, the structure is supported by critical seller-completed upgrades including a new roof, upgraded electrical panel, and new heater. Located moments from the beach and Highway 1, this project is an ideal acquisition for Fix-and-Flip Investors or Contractors looking to capitalize on a high-demand coastal corridor.
Property is extensive renovation needed.
Built in 1940 and explicitly marketed as a 'fixer,' this property requires a full interior restoration. While the seller has provided a head start with a new roof, upgraded electrical panel, and heater, the 80+ year old structure needs a complete rehab of the kitchen and bathroom to be considered modern and functional.
Situated just moments from the beach, scenic recreation trails, and vibrant dining, this property offers an exceptional lifestyle in a highly desirable coastal corridor with easy access to Highway 1.
The seller has already completed high-value essential upgrades including a new roof, upgraded electrical panel, new free-standing heater, and fresh exterior paint, providing a strong foundation for further renovation.
As a creative fixer-upper in a premium location, this property provides a compelling opportunity for investors or homeowners to build significant equity through interior modernization and personalized design.
Marketed explicitly as a fixer-upper, the property requires a visionary buyer willing to invest additional capital and time into a full interior restoration to make it habitable and modern.
With only 686 square feet of living space and a single bedroom, the home's current small footprint may be too restrictive for many buyers or those looking for family-sized accommodations.
Colorful. Creative. Reimagined. Set just moments from the beach, the scenic recreation trail, vibrant dining, boutique shopping & effortless access to Hwy. 1, this opportunity places lifestyle & location at the forefront. For the imaginative buyer, this fixer offers a compelling canvas to design, restore & elevate a coastal retreat uniquely your own. Envision mornings filled with ocean air, afternoons spent along the bike path, & evenings enjoying nearby restaurants, all just minutes from your doorstep. The setting inspires a seamless blend of leisure & convenience while supporting long term value & future equity potential in a highly desirable coastal corridor. Whether your vision leans toward a refined seaside escape, a modernized bungalow, or a strategic investment, the possibilities here are as expansive as your creativity. Thoughtful transformation in a location of this caliber is where true value is realized. Seller improvements provide a head start, including a new free standing heater, upgraded electrical panel, new roof, fresh exterior paint & a new front fence. Rarely does a property offer this balance of proximity, accessibility & upside. Bring your vision & create something exceptional.
