About this home

Experience elevated coastal living at this rare, fully remodeled one-story retreat perched high on a canyon rim atop Mount Soledad. Perfectly positioned on the sunny side of La Jolla above the coastal marine layer, this nearly half-acre (18,400 sq. ft.) sanctuary boasts permanent, protected 270-degree panoramic canyon, mountain, and city-light views—even showcasing snow-capped peaks on clear winter mornings. An extensive 2022–2025 renovation transformed the original footprint into a light-filled, open-concept entertainer's dream, featuring soaring exposed beams, wide-plank hardwood floors, and a stunning marble fireplace. The gourmet kitchen centerpiece is a massive quartz island and a handcrafted ILVE range, while walls of glass seamlessly connect the indoors to a spectacular full-width deck designed for everything from quiet morning coffees to grand evening gatherings. The thoughtfully designed layout offers four bedrooms and three bathrooms on one level, highlighted by a secluded primary suite and a dedicated home office, plus a versatile detached studio with its own private entrance and half-bath. Exceptional modern upgrades include a new Spanish-tile roof (2023), central A/C, 220V EV charging, and a 22-panel owned solar system (NEM 2.0) producing ~11 MWh/year. With no HOA and located just minutes from the Village, Windansea Beach, and La Jolla Shores, this is an unparalleled opportunity.
