Condition Analysis

OVERALL CONDITION SCORE

Tear down
TeardownExcellent

Property is land value only, full reconstruction required.

Built in 1959, the existing 1,715 SF structure is described as a modest placeholder with no significant updates. The property is being marketed primarily for its land value and 'ready to issue' permits for a complete redevelopment into a 4,332 SF modern estate, indicating the current residence is intended for demolition.

PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES

  • 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 = 44431, living area = 1715.

  • Development Ready

    The property features fully approved plans and 'ready to issue' permits for a 4,332 SF main residence and 1,200 SF guest house, saving the buyer years of typical Montecito planning and entitlement delays.

  • Elite Location & Privacy

    Nestled at the end of a private lane just one mile from the Upper Village, this south-facing acre offers exceptional seclusion and is adjacent to a sprawling estate with views of old-growth Oak trees.

CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES

  • Substantial Additional Investment

    The $4.495M list price is primarily for the land and permits; the buyer must commit significant additional capital and time to execute the 4,332 SF construction project.

  • Dated Existing Structure

    The current 1959 residence is modest at 1,715 SF and lacks the modern amenities expected at this price point, serving essentially as a placeholder for the future development.
