Perfectly sited on approximately 0.91 Acres above the Blue Pacific, with views from the La Jolla Cove to the Cliffs of Blacks Beach. Expansive level yard and lush tropical foliage invite you to enjoy the outdoor coastal lifestyle. Single-level Wood and Glass home blends seamlessly into the vista. Floor to ceiling walls of glass capture the amazing views. Curvilinear kitchen island is the focal point of the open floorplan, with the spacious kitchen facing the living and dining rooms, all highlighted by soaring ceilings, glass walls and natural design features. A once in a lifetime Trophy Property.

Incredible privacy abounds, starting with the long driveway, set off the street leading to a parking pad and garage that can accommodate 10+ cars. Wooden gate with artistic water feature leads you to the flower filled entry courtyard, and massive front door, that creates a statement upon entry to your "hidden home". Reported to be the largest Oceanfront property, for a detached home, between Marine Street and Scripps Pier. This is a 'hidden home' on an amazing lot, with pathways and trails to explore the nature that surrounds you. In addition to the three bedrooms, there are two additional rooms, used currently as a den/guestroom and the other as an office looking out towards the courtyard. A subterranean room, currently used for book storage would make a wonderful wine cellar. Fully fenced for your dog. Solar panels are owned. Unique features for fabulous entertaining include ample parking for 10+ cars and/or catering services. Very rare to find, large, level lawn and garden on the Oceanfront with views in every direction, plus wrap around decks and patios with seating options for groups and private moments to soak in the views. Secluded spa with views is yet another space for meditation and relaxation at this amazing property. You will never want to leave home. Seller has received Residential Building Records from the County Tax Assessor that says the year built was 1958, it was extensively remodeled in 2002. And to quote the notes on that document... "Magnificent unimpeded ocean and shoreline panoramic views, nearly 180 degrees" Even the city officials are impressed! And you will be as well!
