Condition Rating
Good
This property is a move-in ready 'remodeled coastal cottage' with a well-maintained exterior featuring artificial turf, a hot tub, and modern fencing. The interior boasts modern laminate flooring in the living areas and bedrooms, fresh paint, and updated light fixtures (ceiling fans). While the kitchen is clean and functional, its light wood cabinets, white appliances, and tile flooring appear to be from an older renovation (likely 15-25 years ago) and are not up to current modern standards. The visible bathroom vanity area appears more updated. Overall, the property is in good condition with recent updates to many areas, but the kitchen's style prevents it from being classified as 'Excellent' due to not being 'new or virtually new' within the last 5 years.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Prime Coastal Location: The property boasts an exceptional Pacific Beach location, offering immediate access to the beach, cafes, shops, and nightlife, making it ideal for a vibrant coastal lifestyle.
Remodeled & Charming: Described as a 'remodeled coastal cottage,' the home offers updated interiors and a charming aesthetic, appealing to buyers seeking a move-in ready property.
Exceptional Outdoor Living: Features two spacious, fully fenced patios with a private hot tub and propane fire table, providing extensive outdoor space for relaxation and entertaining.
Future Expansion Potential: The listing highlights 'expansion opportunities available,' suggesting potential for buyers to add value and increase living space in the future.
Dedicated Parking: The inclusion of two dedicated parking spaces is a significant advantage in the dense Pacific Beach area where parking is often at a premium.
Cons
Compact Living Space: At 750 sqft with 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom, the interior living area is quite small, which may limit its appeal to buyers seeking more spacious accommodations or larger families.
Unusual Association Fee: A $200 monthly association fee for a detached single-family residence is uncommon and requires clarification on what services or amenities it covers, potentially adding an unexpected recurring cost.
Lack of Direct Ocean Views: While ocean views are available from the street, the property description does not indicate direct ocean views from the home itself, which some buyers might expect in a prime coastal location.
