Participant[quote=bearishgurl][quote=briansd1]That house is ugly.
All concrete back yard.Hard to believe that the owner of an “upscale” house has dinning room chairs that look like they belong in a cheap Chinese restaurant.[/quote]
Lol.
[quote=briansd1]Sorry, BG. But that stone fireplace really needs to be ripped out.
I like the U shape and the veranda. The house has potential but needs a lot of work.[/quote]
It’s a matter of taste, brian. I take it you don’t like mediterraneans. And, since you live in a condo, you don’t have to worry about a humongous water bill. Did you know that the amount of a homeowner’s sewer bill is tied to to their water usage in the months of November thru April?? Together these two expenses are a slippery slope of insidious added costs. This property offers the OP his/her privacy while keeping monthly expenses down.
I guess I like it because it reminds me of Bonita :=]
I see a few improvements here that could update this property into the current century for a song.
wanttobuy, are you or anyone in your family handy??[/quote]
BG, I’m in complete agreement with you on this one. This house has a boatload of potential, and a lot of it would not be expensive to do yourself if you were reasonably handy (i.e., not a total klutz). I’d love to get my hands on this place. Did you catch that ocean view? For $189 per sf? Why, oh why, do I have to live in DC (the land of spray-on tans)?
Brian, I’m surprised at you! You’re an astute individual. And you’re commenting on CHAIRS? Handy tip: Bad taste is everywhere. Ocean views: not so much.
I wouldn’t get rid of the fireplace: it’s nicely done, and it fits the era of the house without dating it. I think you’d be surprised at the difference the right hardwood flooring and paint scheme would make. Brian, I’m betting that I could make you lust after this house. I totally agree with you about the excess concrete, but that’s fixable (time-consuming, expensive if contracted out, but definitely do-able!). Again, I think you’d be floored by the transformation.
Wanttobuy, two words: SUBMIT OFFER! (purchase only after an thorough inspection by a highly qualified individual, of course)
BG, if Wanttobuy doesn’t jump on it, let’s you and I go in on it!!

ParticipantThe problem is that the dream house for you is not the dream house for other people. Soliciting opinions for your dream house will end up with people squabbling over why the versions that they like are better then each other.
Why don’t you state what you want and say to hell with what other people think:
– location (somewhat close to carmel valley)
– school district
– size
– old house/new house?
– is a yard important…etc
