The property was built in 1928, and the listing explicitly states that 'The true value lies in the potential: develop or build up' and refers to it as a 'rare blank canvas.' Conceptual plans for a new single-family residence are provided, and there are no interior photos of the existing 572 sq ft bungalow, strongly indicating that the current structure is not considered livable or desirable in its present state and its value is based solely on the land and redevelopment potential.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Prime Coastal Location: Located in the highly sought-after 'Walking District' of Cardiff By The Sea, offering unparalleled access to world-class beaches, surf spots, and a vibrant community.
Exceptional Ocean Views: The property currently boasts breathtaking ocean views with significant potential for expansive whitewater and panoramic ocean views upon development.
Significant Development Potential: Sitting on two legal lots, this property is a rare 'blank canvas' for expansion or new construction, allowing for maximization of views and value.
Investment Rarity: A unique and rare chance to own a prime piece of coastal real estate in one of San Diego’s most desirable and appreciating neighborhoods.
Unbeatable Walkability: Enjoy ultimate coastal lifestyle with blocks-away access to popular amenities including Seaside Market, Glen Park, cafes, restaurants, shopping, and recreational trails.

Cons

Existing Structure Condition & Size: The current 1928, 572 sq ft bungalow is small and likely requires extensive renovation or demolition, adding significant immediate costs and effort.
High Initial Investment for Land Value: The $2.175M list price primarily reflects the value of the land and its development potential, representing a substantial upfront investment for a non-move-in-ready property.
Development Complexity & Cost: Realizing the property's full potential involves considerable time, expense, and effort for planning, permitting, and construction, which may be a barrier for some buyers.
