    What's special

    Perched above the canyon on a quiet cul-de-sac, 1777 Puterbaugh Street is one of San Diego’s most extraordinary residences — a bold architectural statement by acclaimed local architects Batter Kay, dramatically spilling over the canyon with sweeping panoramic views of the bay, city skyline, and Pacific Ocean visible from virtually every room. Spanning nearly 5,000 square feet across three masterfully conceived levels on a 10,000+ square-foot lot, this completely modernized contemporary home represents over $750,000 in curated upgrades, blending architectural pedigree with smart home technology, paid solar, and EV charging. The top floor was made for entertaining — a formal great room and dining room flow into a spacious family room and chef’s kitchen, all opening onto an expansive deck for seamless indoor-outdoor living. A handsome office with built-in double desks and custom bookcases provides an inspiring work-from-home sanctuary. Above it all, a rooftop viewing deck delivers some of the most spectacular city light views in San Diego. The entire second level is devoted to an extraordinary primary retreat — built-in seating area, enormous private deck, spa bathroom with heated floors and two showers, and the largest walk-in closet you’ll ever see. The ground floor offers a private guest haven with two en suite bedrooms, a dedicated living room, and its own sense of arrival. The grand staircase is designed to accommodate a future elevator. Outside, a modern pool and spa anchor the landscape, surrounded by lush privacy screening with panoramic bay and city views as the backdrop. An outdoor kitchen, outdoor shower, multiple terraces, mature fruiting trees, and raised vegetable garden beds complete a resort-like setting designed for both entertaining and everyday escape. Walkable to parks, restaurants, and neighborhood businesses, yet tucked away on a quiet, low-traffic street — 1777 Puterbaugh is a rare opportunity to own an architectural landmark where design, views, and lifestyle converge.
