The minute I saw this address I knew that it would have a big ocean view because I sold one in here before. It turns out, I sold this very home in 2001 for $257,000 when it was all-original (I rep’d the seller then). It has since sold for $461,000 in 2005, $429,000 in 2014, $613,000 in 2018, and $979,000 on Thursday.
My buyer is out-of-state and made the offer based on this video – and came for the home inspection:

We represented the seller, and at the open-house extravaganza I had 200+ people attend. Most thought I was crazy for putting such an outrageous price on a home in original condition, but I received five offers and sold it for 11% over list!

Super-custom estate with commanding ocean views from the best lot in the neighborhood! The previous owner had invested over $1,000,000 in upgrades, and these sellers added their own touches to create a magnificent property. Once through the private gates, it is immediately apparent that the attention to detail is paramount. Expert stone and woodwork set the stage for an elegant example of interior design, sure to impress the most discerning of palates. An open foyer shines in marble. Columned archways, hint at spacious parlors. Custom ironwork adorns the graceful, winding staircase – which frames a grand wine room. The entryway flows past the formal dining room and into an expansive family room – ideal for entertaining and complete with a functional bar and ocean view. A richly appointed, chef’s kitchen is at the ready, for functions large or small, and effortlessly incorporates the finest appliances, rich woods and exotic slab granite. Upstairs, a luxe master suite offers spa-like comfort- whether it’s relaxing in front of the fireplace or taking in your own private sunset, via the secluded balcony. Secondary rooms are beyond comfortable, and there is even a guest room, with en-suite bathroom, down stairs. Choose to step off the beaten path, once again, and take your place at the top of Aviara Point.
