Condition Rating
Excellent

Built in 2013, this property is just outside the 10-year 'newly built' guideline, but its condition, high-end finishes, and meticulous maintenance place it firmly in the 'Excellent' category. The kitchen features stainless steel appliances, maple cabinetry, and stone countertops, all in pristine condition. Bathrooms are consistently modern with quality fixtures, stone countertops, and tiled showers, showing no signs of wear. Brazilian cherry hardwood floors, solid-core mahogany doors, an elevator, wine cellar, and owned solar system further underscore its luxury status and 'virtually new' condition with no deferred maintenance.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Prime Coastal Location & Walkability: Situated west of I-5 and just blocks from the beach in Cardiff By The Sea, offering exceptional walkability to beaches, Seaside Market, cafes, and trails in a highly sought-after community.
Modern Construction & High-End Finishes: Built in 2013, the residence features timeless design with modern luxury, including Brazilian cherry hardwood floors, solid-core mahogany doors, refined finishes, and a chef's kitchen with stainless steel appliances and stone countertops.
Luxury Amenities & Flexible Spaces: Equipped with an elevator serving all levels, a basement retreat with a wine cellar and versatile bonus space, motorized sunshades, owned solar, a reverse osmosis system, and a 3-car garage.
Exceptional Value Proposition: Advertised as the 'Lowest Price Per Sq. Ft. in Cardiff' and an 'incredible value,' with the current list price significantly below the estimated market value, presenting a strong investment opportunity.
Spacious & Well-Appointed Layout: Boasting over 4,400 sq. ft. with 4 bedrooms and 6 baths, including a luxurious primary suite, en-suite guest rooms, and a flexible first-floor office/bedroom, providing ample space and comfort.

Cons

Recent Price Reduction: The property has undergone a price reduction from its original list price of $3.5M to $3.25M, which, despite positioning it as a 'value,' might prompt questions from potential buyers regarding its initial market reception.
Limited Ocean View: The description specifies a 'Peek-A-Boo' ocean view, indicating that the ocean vistas are not expansive or panoramic, which could be a consideration for buyers seeking unobstructed coastal scenery.
Absence of Explicit Central Air Conditioning: While a modern build from 2013, the property description does not explicitly mention a central air conditioning system, which could be a drawback for some buyers during warmer periods, despite coastal breezes.
