Condition Rating
Good
This custom-built home from 2005 falls squarely within the 'Good' category, being 19 years old. It boasts exceptional quality materials like travertine flooring throughout and high-end Thermador appliances in the gourmet kitchen, including dual ovens and two dishwashers. The kitchen and bathrooms are well-maintained, clean, and fully functional, though their aesthetic reflects the home's original build year rather than a recent, extensive renovation. The property is move-in ready with no immediate repairs or updates required, and all visible components show minimal wear and tear, indicating a well-cared-for home.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Prime Location & Schools: Located in the highly desirable University City community, offering excellent proximity to top-rated schools (Curie Elementary 8/10, Standley Middle 7/10, University City High 9/10).
Modern Custom Build & Craftsmanship: A custom-built home from 2005, showcasing exceptional craftsmanship, detailed finishes, and luxurious travertine flooring throughout.

Luxurious Interior Amenities: Boasts a grand turret entry, dedicated home office, formal dining room with built-in buffet and wine fridge, and a family room with a fireplace, built-ins, and surround sound.
Spacious & Functional Layout: Offers generous living areas across 3058 sqft, designed for both comfortable family living and sophisticated entertaining.
Cons
Bedroom Count for Price Point: With only 3 bedrooms for a 3058 sqft home at a $2.49M list price, some buyers may find the bedroom count low compared to similar luxury properties in this market segment.
Modest Lot Size: The 6100 sqft lot, while functional, might be considered modest for a custom luxury home of this caliber and price, potentially limiting extensive outdoor expansion or privacy.
Limited Outdoor Living Details: Beyond an 'inviting courtyard,' the description lacks specific details about significant backyard features, such as a pool, large patio, or elaborate landscaping, which are often expected in luxury San Diego homes.
