Condition Rating
Excellent

Despite being built in 1977, this property has undergone a comprehensive and recent renovation, as explicitly stated in the description ('freshly renovated', 'beautifully updated kitchen & bathrooms, new central heat & A/C, new full size LG washer/dryer upstairs, new tankless water heater & new roof'). The images confirm a modern, high-quality aesthetic throughout, particularly in the kitchen with its green cabinetry, wood countertops, farmhouse sink, and stainless steel appliances, and the bathrooms with contemporary vanities and black fixtures. All major systems are new, indicating no deferred maintenance and minimal physical depreciation, aligning perfectly with the 'Excellent' criteria for a property extensively renovated within the last 5 years.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Prime La Jolla Location & Walkability: The property boasts an exceptional location in the heart of La Jolla, offering unparalleled walkability to the village, world-class shopping, dining, art galleries, and La Jolla Elementary School (less than 0.5 miles).
Extensive Recent Renovations & Turn-key Condition: This home is move-in ready, featuring fresh renovations including new central heat/A/C, tankless water heater, roof, oak floors, and beautifully updated kitchen and bathrooms.
Desirable Indoor-Outdoor Living & Private Outdoor Spaces: Designed for effortless indoor-outdoor living, the property includes a charming, fully fenced front yard with a custom brick patio and a private back entertaining patio with a fire pit and BBQ area.
Single-Family Home with No HOA: As a single-family residence, the property offers the independence and cost savings of no Homeowners Association fees or restrictive covenants.
Coastal Lifestyle Proximity: Enjoy easy access to a multitude of renowned beaches, tide-pools, and the iconic La Jolla Cove, providing a quintessential Southern California coastal living experience.

Cons

Moderate Square Footage for Price Point: At 1825 sqft for a 4-bedroom home, the interior living space might be considered modest by some buyers, especially given the premium price point in the La Jolla market.
Limited Ocean Views: While offering 'Ocean' and 'Coastline' views, the 'Peek-A-Boo' description suggests these views are not expansive or unobstructed, which may not meet expectations for grand vistas in a coastal luxury property.
Tandem Parking: The driveway accommodates two cars in tandem, which can be inconvenient for households with multiple drivers or frequent guests who prefer independent parking access.
