Tear down
TeardownExcellent
Property is land value only, full reconstruction required.
Built in 1959 with no evidence of major renovations, the property is explicitly marketed as a 'blank canvas' to 'build your dream home.' The inclusion of architectural renderings for a new estate and the focus on land value and panoramic views confirm the existing structure is a tear-down.
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 = 20600, living area = 2067.
- Great Schools
Elementary School: Bird Rock Elementary School (10/10).
- Panoramic Ocean Views
The property offers sweeping, unobstructed ocean vistas and privacy, providing a premium coastal atmosphere that significantly enhances its market value and appeal.
CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- Dated Existing Structure
Built in 1959, the current 2,067 sqft home is likely under-improved for the lot's value and will require a total teardown or extensive, costly modernization.
- High Entry Cost for Land
With a list price exceeding $4 million, the property represents a significant initial investment primarily for the land, requiring substantial additional capital for development.
