Pros & Cons

Pros

Exceptional Ocean Views & Prime Location: Offers panoramic views of the ocean, bay, and city lights, coupled with an unbeatable location just five blocks from the beach and steps from Ocean Beach's vibrant shops, restaurants, and nightlife.
High-Quality Modern Construction: Virtually rebuilt in 2004 with no expense spared, featuring high-end upgrades like 5/8-inch drywall, R-30 insulation, dual-pane Milgard windows, and central A/C, ensuring durability and comfort.
Significant Income & Investment Potential: Features three separate entrances, proven Airbnb success, VA approval, and R-2 Minor zoning, offering excellent flexibility for rental income or future development (ADU potential in garage).
Luxurious Interior Finishes: Boasts a chef's kitchen with custom cabinetry, stainless-steel appliances, a large island, and granite countertops, complemented by beautifully remodeled bathrooms including a primary steam shower and guest jetted tub.
Versatile Outdoor & Garage Spaces: Includes three spacious patios for entertaining, a private fenced courtyard with a hot tub and outdoor shower, and an oversized garage offering flexible use for parking, storage, entertaining, or ADU conversion.

Cons

Limited Lot Size: The 2,500 sq ft lot is relatively small for a detached single-family residence, potentially limiting expansive outdoor living space beyond the existing patios.
Bedroom Count for Price Point: With 2 bedrooms (plus an optional 3rd/flex space) for 1,403 sq ft at a $1.725M price point, the property may appeal to a narrower buyer demographic seeking more dedicated bedrooms for the investment.
Potential for Noise from Vibrant Location: While a strength for convenience, being 'steps away from OB's best shops, restaurants & nightlife' could lead to increased noise levels and reduced privacy, especially given the property's multi-entrance and Airbnb history.
