Property is moderate renovation needed.
The property is a high-end, meticulously maintained estate built in 1998. While it is move-in ready and features premium appliances like Viking and Sub-Zero, the interior finishes—specifically the blue marble countertops, ornate cabinetry, and wall stenciling—reflect the original late-90s Mediterranean style. According to the criteria, it is classified as 'fair' because it was built over 20 years ago (27 years) and has not undergone a major modern renovation, resulting in functional but stylistically outdated components.
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 64468, living area = 4195.
The property commands rare, unobstructed vistas spanning from the Pacific Ocean to the Santa Ynez Mountains, providing a dramatic backdrop from nearly every room in the residence.
A substantial 1,322 sqft detached guest house complements the main home, offering a full kitchenette, living area, and office space ideal for long-term guests or a private studio.
Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 4195, other record living area = 5517.
With over 160 days on the market and a recent $1 million price reduction, the property may carry a 'stale' perception that requires aggressive marketing to overcome.
Built in 1998, the Mediterranean aesthetic and original finishes may require significant capital investment to modernize and compete with newer contemporary builds in Hope Ranch.
