[quote=zzz]I’m with SD R, its hard to suggest when you haven’t listed your requirements. For instance, the example house you gave is 4000sqft, do you need something that large or will you settle for 3k?
At any rate, if you do a search on redfin for homes up to 1M, 4/3, 3500sq ft, and .25 acres as min requirement, it doesn’t yield too many homes within 15-20m of SV
La Quebrada in Olivenhain is a clusterf&*K that cant be fixed. You can either live with the funky old floorplan but its probably a tear down. The owner is an old time builder who kept adding on for his personal needs. It looks like a house you would find in Puerto Neuvo.
Avocado in rural DM is tricky. Can be lots of freeway noise up there. Hard to tell without walking the site. If you are willing/able to spend around $1 to $1.2M you can get an amazing property exactly like you described in rural DM. Just takes patience and good help. Its one of my favoriate areas and I would live in that area in second.
