Condition Rating
Fair
Built in 1989, this luxury estate is well-maintained with high-quality materials for its era. The kitchen features updated stainless steel appliances, but the wood cabinetry and black granite countertops reflect a dated style. While no bathroom images are provided, it's reasonable to infer they align with the property's overall 1980s/early 1990s aesthetic. Other elements like light fixtures and some flooring (terracotta tiles) are also consistent with the original build. A significant factor is the noted absence of central air conditioning, which is a major drawback for a luxury property in Southern California. The property is functional and move-in ready but requires substantial modernization and updates to meet contemporary luxury standards and expectations, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria for a property built over 20 years ago that needs minor updates or repairs.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Great Schools: Elementary School: Doyle Elementary School (9/10). High School: University City High School (9/10).
Prime Location & Exclusive Access: Located in the highly desirable La Jolla Farms neighborhood, offering private gated access to Blacks Beach, a significant luxury amenity.
Breathtaking Ocean Views: Features unobstructed Pacific Ocean views from multiple vantage points throughout the property, including the main house and guest suite, enhancing its allure and value.
Versatile Guest Suite: Includes a separate 2-story guest wing with its own kitchen, living area, and ocean-view master bedroom, providing exceptional flexibility for guests, staff, or a private workspace.
Luxurious Entertainment & Amenities: Boasts an expansive backyard with a pool, large indoor/outdoor entertainment areas, a cook's kitchen with stainless steel appliances, and four wood-burning fireplaces, ideal for sophisticated living and hosting.
Generous Space & Parking: Offers an impressive 11,434 sqft of living space on a large 33,541 sqft lot, complemented by a 3-car garage and 4 additional parking spaces, accommodating multiple vehicles.

Cons

Age & Potential for Updates: Built in 1989, while charming, some aspects of the property (beyond the kitchen) may require modernization to align with contemporary luxury standards expected at this price point.
Absence of Central Air Conditioning: The description highlights fireplaces but makes no mention of a cooling system, which could be a significant comfort drawback during warmer periods in Southern California.
High Operating Costs: The substantial size of the estate (over 11,000 sqft home, large lot, pool) inherently implies significant ongoing expenses for maintenance, utilities, and property taxes.
