The MLS description highlights the 'current home is turn key beautiful 3 bedroom, 2 bath remodeled single-level home.' While the provided images are explicitly stated as '3D renderings of architectural designs' for a future expansion, they are presented as part of the listing and showcase an exceptionally high standard of modern design and finish. This implies that the existing remodeled home is also in excellent condition, featuring contemporary styles and high-quality materials. The kitchens and bathrooms, as depicted, are state-of-the-art with modern appliances, fixtures, and finishes (e.g., flat-panel cabinetry, integrated appliances, freestanding tub, walk-in shower, modern lighting, and wood-look flooring). This aligns with the 'Excellent' criteria of being extensively renovated recently with virtually new components meeting current quality standards.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Approved Expansion Plans: Pre-approved and paid-for permits for a significant second-story addition, rooftop deck, and expanded living spaces de-risk future development and add substantial value.
Prime Coastal Location: Highly sought-after Solana Beach neighborhood, west of I-5, offering proximity to beaches, amenities, and top-rated, walking-distance schools.
Strong Income-Generating Potential: Documented high AirBnB/VRBO rental income ($170k-$216k annually) provides an immediate revenue stream or offset for a buyer.
Ocean Views & Private Acreage: South-facing ocean views of La Jolla Cove combined with a private 0.5-acre tropical lot create an exclusive and serene environment.
Turn-Key Remodeled Home with Parking/ADU Potential: The existing single-level home is beautifully remodeled and turn-key, complemented by ample parking and potential for an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU).

Cons

Original Construction Age (1950): Despite remodels, the property's 1950 build year may raise concerns about underlying infrastructure (e.g., plumbing, electrical, foundation) that could require future attention.
Significant Additional Investment Required: While expansion plans are approved, the buyer will need to undertake substantial construction costs and time to realize the property's full potential and increased square footage.
Modest Current Square Footage for Price: The existing 1800 sqft home is relatively modest for a property listed at nearly $3.5 million in this market, with much of the value tied to the land and future development.
