Perfectly preserved early 70’s high end interior

[quote=SK in CV]I think you misunderstood BG. I don’t know if a 62 year old house is old. I think 100 year old house is, particularly in SD. 50 years old probably not. I was just asking for opinion. How old is an old house in SD? I don’t know the answer.[/quote]

I consider “old houses” in SD to be older than about 1927 (Arts and Crafts period). The Mills Act requires homes to be 75 years old and their owner to demonstrate through any means that their properties have “historical significance” for its area to qualify for tax abatement (severe reduction).

But there are a LOT of Piggs here (Gen Y?) whom I think would say a 1990’s-built home is “old.” :=D

[quote=AN]Lot B+, house D-. Based on the pictures, the layout seems dysfunctional to me. If I was given that house, I’d probably tear it down and rebuild from scratch to take more advantage of that view.[/quote]

LOL, nothing wrong with it … but this is typical example of a Gen Y opinion of a “dated” listing. The house doesn’t “flow.” :=0

Uhhh, AN?? This house sits on a 12,800 sf corner lot with a paved alley.

Not ALL alleys in 92106/92107 ARE paved.

In your opinion, what percentage of the asking price represents the lot and what percentage represents the house and deck?

90% lot and 10% house.

I’m Gen Y and I would say most that are pre 1980 is old.

In SD, the threshold for potential historical significance, is 45 y.o. See http://www.sandiego.gov/planning/programs/historical/faq/index.shtml

The FEDs see 50 years as the threshold, http://www.achp.gov/docs/CitizenGuide.pdf

Personally, i think both are too young; but then again, I am about to be potentially historic based on SD standards

Some of the best lots in town are in areas with older homes. Unless the home is of historic value, many people buy a house they might not love, tear it down, and build what they want. For many, it’s all about location, not how “new” the house is.

Oh my, it is like a time warp or an ad from a 40 year old magazine. Yours for the low low price of 1.2 million.[/quote]

Well, how about a perfectly-preserved 1965?

Too bad their fridge broke down sometimes in the 80s, the rest is a perfect “time-warp”
