Welcome to one of La Costa Ridge’s most exceptional gated estates — a west-facing architectural masterpiece perfectly positioned on a coveted canyon rim lot with breathtaking ocean and sunset views. Sitting on a cul-de-sac street with no neighbors behind, this award-winning residence offers the ultimate blend of luxury, privacy, and indoor-outdoor California living. Spanning 4,757 square feet, this stunning home features 4 spacious bedrooms, a private office, loft, and 4.5 beautifully appointed baths. Every bedroom enjoys its own en-suite bath, while the thoughtfully designed floorplan includes a desirable main-level guest suite and seamless transitions throughout the home. A dramatic rear glass wall captures panoramic canyon and ocean vistas, flooding the living spaces with natural light and creating an unforgettable backdrop from nearly every room. Elegant architectural details abound, including single and double French doors throughout — no sliding glass doors — adding timeless sophistication and charm. The chef’s kitchen is designed to impress with Thermador Professional appliances, an oversized island with breakfast bar seating, abundant cabinetry, and a large walk-in pantry. Upstairs, the luxurious primary retreat offers a spa-inspired bath, expansive custom walk-in closet, and access to a wraparound balcony perfectly suited for enjoying sunset evenings. Step outside into your private resort-style backyard featuring a sparkling pool and spa, built-in BBQ/outdoor kitchen, putting green, and a covered loggia ideal for entertaining year-round. Additional highlights include freshly painted interior and exterior, brand-new carpet, a 3-car tandem garage, and an award-winning architectural design that sets this home apart from the rest. This is a rare opportunity to own one of La Costa Ridge’s premier view properties — where luxury, privacy, and timeless design come together in spectacular fashion.
