Condition Rating
Excellent
Despite being built in 1910, the property is described as a 'newly remodeled beach pad,' which is strongly supported by the images. The kitchen features new two-tone cabinetry, modern patterned backsplash, stainless steel appliances, and LVP flooring, all appearing virtually new. The visible bathroom and general interior spaces also show fresh paint and consistent modern flooring, indicating a comprehensive and recent renovation that meets current quality standards with no deferred maintenance.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Premier Coastal Location: Situated on Depot Hill, just one lot from the cliff, offering direct oceanfront path access to Capitola Village and an end-of-cul-de-sac setting for privacy.
Significant Development Potential: Features a large, level lot with an ADU application in process and clear potential for a 2-story expansion to capture panoramic ocean views.
Recently Remodeled & Charming: A newly remodeled 'beach pad' that beautifully embodies California Beach charm, enhancing immediate livability.
Enhanced Outdoor Living: Offers a very large, charming backyard perfect for gardening and entertaining, complete with a unique ocean-view tree house.
Generous Parking: Provides ample space for parking, including oversized vehicles, a valuable asset in a desirable coastal community.
Cons
Historic Property Age: Built in 1910, the property's age may necessitate ongoing maintenance or updates to older systems and infrastructure.
Unrealized Development Requires Investment: While offering significant potential, the ADU and expansion plans are not yet complete, requiring further investment and effort from the buyer to fully realize.
Modest Current Square Footage: The existing 1466 sqft might be considered relatively small for a property with such a prime location and price point, prior to any expansion.
