About this home

Sunlit coastal living with sweeping blue-water views from multiple rooms. Watch cruise ships pass by and enjoy a direct view of the historic lighthouse from the comfort of your home. A large, open kitchen captures broad ocean vistas with generous counter space and storage, a gas cooktop and oven, and a Bosch dishwasher. A Jack-and-Jill bath features a jetted walk-in tub and a newly built, permitted second bathroom with ocean views. Warm wood and laminate floors, recessed lighting, and an indoor laundry room add everyday ease. A permitted basement provides excellent storage or workshop potential. Old-growth redwood framing, bolted and strapped to the foundation, reflects meticulous care and stewardship. Professionally landscaped grounds pair with a private rear patio that welcomes the afternoon breeze. A sizable lot with ADU potential for extra space or possible secondary income. Just a short walk away, the Boat Marina offers a vibrant coastal lifestyle with amazing local restaurants where you can dine while overlooking the sailboats: Near Point Fermin Park, Cabrillo Beach and Aquarium, scenic bluff-top trails, and neighborhood cafes. Wake up to beach walks, cast a line from Cabrillo Beach Pier, or try windsurfing and snorkeling just minutes away. A permit is needed to access the rear private driveway. Property will be sold with a height restriction to protect the view lines of the adjacent property.

Condition Rating
Fair
Built in 1923, this property shows signs of good maintenance and structural integrity with old-growth redwood framing. While one bathroom is newly built and modern, the kitchen features dated tile countertops and backsplash, and the other bathroom's vanity and fixtures appear to be from a renovation 15-30 years ago. The flooring and recessed lighting are positive updates, but the overall aesthetic of key areas like the kitchen and one bathroom, combined with potential age-related system concerns for a home built in 1923, place it in the 'Fair' category, suggesting it's functional but would benefit from minor updates to meet current styles.
