Condition Rating
Poor
Built in 1964, this home features a very dated interior, particularly in the kitchen and bathrooms. The kitchen has pink tiled countertops and backsplash, older black appliances, and dated lighting. Bathrooms also feature extensive pink tiling and older fixtures. While described as 'lovingly maintained,' the aesthetic and functional obsolescence of these key areas, along with older carpets and light fixtures throughout, indicates a need for substantial cosmetic rehabilitation. The property aligns with the 'Poor' category due to its age and the apparent last renovation being 30-50 years ago, requiring significant updates to meet current standards, despite appearing structurally sound.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Income/Flexibility Potential: The property includes an already built 2nd story ADU, providing significant flexibility for rental income, multi-generational living, or a dedicated home office space.
Expansive & Usable Lot: A generous 7200+ square foot usable lot offers ample space for outdoor amenities like a pool, extensive landscaping, and large gatherings, enhancing lifestyle and property value.
Mid-Century Modern Appeal & Customization: The classic Mid-Century Modern architecture provides a timeless design foundation, offering a unique opportunity for buyers to personalize and create their dream home.
Desirable Location & Scenic Views: Situated in a vibrant La Mesa neighborhood with views of hills, lake, and mountains, offering convenient access to recreational options, beaches, restaurants, and Downtown San Diego.
First-Time Market Offering: Being on the market for the very first time suggests original ownership and potentially well-preserved character, presenting a rare acquisition opportunity.

Cons

Age of Core Systems: Built in 1964, the property may have original or aging core systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that could require significant capital investment for upgrades or replacement in the near future.
Renovation Investment Required: Described as a 'starting point to create your dream home,' indicating that significant renovation and modernization efforts will likely be necessary to meet contemporary buyer expectations and maximize its potential.
Above Estimated Market Value: The current listing price is approximately 3% higher than the property's estimated market value, which could impact buyer interest and potentially extend time on market.
