What is the big drama in Channel Island? We were in escrow on a house in there last year or year before, I can’t remember. Anyway, during disclosures, the seller (also the LA) disclosed that the neighbor to the east played music on the weekends that you could hear in the backyard. So we went by one weekend and boy, was it noisy! So, we cancelled escrow and it ended up selling the next selling cycle.
Now I see the noisy house was on the market and went pending quick for an eye-popping price. The listing remarks comment on the “restaurant-quality” sound system. The backyard on the noisy house is amazing – definitely built for serious entertaining.
We also considered another house in Channel Island but the backyard had an unpermitted loggia. That came back on the market this year and went pending recently. Not super quick, but quick enough.
I noticed the Sandalwood recent listing. Looks nice.
We ended up in a nice newer smaller semi-custom development in Leucadia that so far has no drama and is surrounded by funky town, which we love.
