Condition Rating
Good

This custom-built estate, originally constructed in 2001, received a substantial addition, exterior stonework, and pool completion in 2008. While the original build is 23 years old, the significant updates 16 years ago, combined with the property's evident high-quality materials and meticulous maintenance, place it firmly in the 'Good' category. The kitchen features well-maintained traditional wood cabinetry, granite countertops, and a full suite of stainless steel appliances (double oven, gas cooktop, microwave, wine fridge, dishwasher) that are functional and in good condition, though the style reflects its early 2000s origin rather than a recent modern renovation. Flooring throughout includes clean tile, carpet, and hardwood. All visible components, including light fixtures and general finishes, appear well-kept and functional, indicating no immediate renovation is required. The property is move-in ready, with major systems likely within their expected lifespan, aligning well with the 'Good' criteria.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Resort-Style Outdoor Living: The property boasts a commercial-grade pool with a cascading waterfall, waterslide, grotto, kiddie pools, jacuzzi, and a multi-sport court, all set within two acres of meticulously landscaped grounds with mature trees.
Significant Income Potential: Explicitly marketed as 'Airbnb-ready,' this estate offers a strong opportunity for luxury rental income or private group retreats, enhancing its investment appeal.
Flexible & Expansive Interiors: The residence features four bedrooms easily convertible to six, an expansive primary suite with a dedicated workout room, custom finishes, and a fluid indoor-outdoor design ideal for multigenerational living.
Extensive Garaging & ADU Potential: Includes a four-car garage plus an additional two-car garage perfectly suited for conversion into an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU), guesthouse, or executive office.
Private Hilltop Location with Views: Perched on a tranquil hilltop, the estate provides panoramic views, deep privacy, and a balanced proximity to coastal attractions and major destinations.

Cons

Original Construction Age: While updated with a substantial addition and pool in 2008, the property's original construction dates back to 2001, which may lead some buyers to consider potential long-term maintenance or desire a newer build.
High Maintenance Demands: The extensive resort-style amenities and large, masterfully landscaped two-acre lot suggest significant ongoing maintenance and operational costs for a prospective owner.
Inland Location for Coastal Access: Despite being described as 'minutes from the Pacific coastline,' its Escondido location is inland, which might translate to longer travel times to beaches and immediate coastal amenities depending on traffic.
