Welcome to a truly exceptional coastal estate where breathtaking ocean views, timeless elegance, and resort-style amenities come together to create one of La Jolla's most extraordinary living experiences.
Perched above the coastline with sweeping southern ocean vistas, this stunning residence offers the perfect blend of luxury, comfort, and California indoor-outdoor living. Enjoy spectacular sunsets from the expansive southwest-facing view deck, unwind beside the sparkling pool and spa, or gather around the fire pit under the stars. Every corner of this property has been thoughtfully designed to create a private retreat that feels worlds away from the ordinary.
Inside, rich hardwood flooring flows throughout the living areas, while the gourmet kitchen features high-end stainless steel appliances and opens to a spacious family room designed for both entertaining and everyday living. The elegant living room, complete with a fireplace, provides a warm and inviting setting for quiet evenings at home.
The spacious floor plan includes two luxurious bedroom suites with private bathrooms and generous closet space, an additional guest bedroom with a walk-in closet, and a private office ideal for working from home. The primary suite offers its own tranquil Zen deck overlooking the views, creating the perfect place for morning coffee or evening relaxation.
Step outside and discover amenities rarely found in a private residence: a detached guest house, outdoor shower, built-in BBQ, putting green, basketball court, flourishing fruit trees, productive grapevine, raised-bed vegetable garden, and beautifully landscaped grounds maintained by weekly landscape and pool service.
Additional features include central heat, a two-car garage with ample storage and EV charger, and an unbeatable location close to La Jolla Elementary, Muirlands Middle School, La Jolla High School, and many of San Diego's premier private schools.
This is more than a homeit is a lifestyle. A place where every day feels like a luxury vacation and every sunset reminds you why La Jolla is one of the most coveted coastal communities in the world.
