Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1967 and on the market for the first time in 60 years, the home is significantly dated. The kitchen features original-style wood cabinetry and tile countertops (>30 years old), and while some bathrooms show minor cosmetic updates, the overall interior requires a full modernization. The listing's emphasis on lot-split potential and conceptual renderings for a new estate indicates the current structure is nearing the end of its functional life cycle for the price point.
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 47916, living area = 5175.
Elementary School: Torrey Pines Elementary School (9/10). High School: University City High School (9/10).
The massive 1.1-acre lot offers a rare opportunity for a lot split into two building sites, plus additional potential to convert the cabana and workshop garage into ADUs, maximizing the property's long-term value.
Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 5175, other record living area = 4518. Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 6, other record bedroom count = 5.
Built in 1967 and held by the same owner for 60 years, the home features a mix of older flooring materials and finishes that likely require a significant capital investment to meet modern luxury standards.
The property has been on the market for nearly 100 days and has already undergone a price reduction, suggesting that the current configuration or initial pricing may not be aligning with immediate buyer demand.
