Condition Rating
Fair

Built in 1956, this property's interior, including the kitchen, shows significant signs of being outdated with original or very old fixtures, cabinetry, and flooring. While a newer stainless steel refrigerator is present, the overall kitchen style and other appliances are dated. The exposed brick walls and wood plank ceilings throughout the living areas and bedrooms contribute to a rustic, aged aesthetic. There are no visible signs of major structural defects or unlivable conditions, suggesting the home is maintained and functional, albeit requiring substantial cosmetic updates and modernization to meet current standards. The property fits the 'Fair' criteria of being aged but maintained, with functional but outdated major components, rather than requiring substantial repairs due to defects or being unlivable.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Extensive Agricultural Infrastructure: This expansive 51+ acre property features established 8+ acres of olive trees and 5+ acres of grape vines, offering significant agricultural potential and a ready-to-operate farm.
Abundant Water Resources: Multiple year-round, spring-fed lakes (over 2.5 acres each) provide essential irrigation water for agricultural operations and offer substantial recreational opportunities.
Multiple Dwellings & Outbuildings: The property includes two single-level homes, a spacious hay barn, numerous outbuildings, and corrals, providing versatile living arrangements and comprehensive farm support.
Exceptional Scenic Views: Boasting panoramic views of Monterey Bay, coastal rolling hills, orchards, vineyards, and lakes, the property offers a stunning backdrop and enhanced lifestyle appeal.
Rare Legacy Opportunity: Properties of this scale with established agricultural assets, abundant water, and scenic beauty are rarely available, presenting a unique opportunity for a family legacy.

Cons

Modest Primary Residence: The main home, built in 1956 with 1384 sqft, 2 beds, and 2 baths, is relatively small and dated for a property of this acreage and price point, likely requiring significant updates or a complete rebuild.
High Price Point & Niche Market: The $4 million list price targets a very specific buyer demographic, potentially leading to a longer market time and a smaller pool of interested parties, as indicated by the recent price reduction.
Ongoing Maintenance & Management: Operating a 51+ acre working farm with multiple structures and agricultural components will demand substantial ongoing maintenance, management, and capital investment from the owner.
