    What's special

    This oceanfront Spanish hacienda radiates with peace and tranquility from its sprawling 13,000 SqFt lot atop Bird Rock with panoramic southwest-facing ocean views all the way down to Point Loma. The supremely private, gated home features a large front courtyard and an open floorplan that enjoys vaulted ceilings, Saltillo tile flooring, large bay windows for views from nearly every room, and hand-carved doors from Mexico that open to the spectacular backyard with an exceptionally rare oceanfront pool and spa overlooking the surf. Located on a lesser traveled stretch of Chelsea, this masterpiece home has been lovingly maintained, improved upon and cherished by the same family since their purchase in 1965. Offered for the first time in 55 years, this majestic property presents an exceptional opportunity to own one of La Jolla's most prized pieces of real estate! 2020-12-22
