Property description
Perched above the coastline on Valdes Drive, this custom La Jolla residence offers exceptional whitewater ocean views from nearly every room. Spanning over 3,800 square feet with four bedrooms, the home was designed to maximize natural light and capture the Pacific through oversized windows equipped with custom automatic shades throughout. The multi-level layout includes elevator access from the garage to the ADU and main living areas, providing convenient access across the home. Expansive living spaces open to large outdoor areas designed for entertaining and enjoying the coastal setting. The top-floor primary suite features sweeping ocean views, a private sauna, and direct access to a spacious deck with a custom pool, jacuzzi, and outdoor shower. Multiple decks provide ample space for outdoor living while taking in the coastline and sunsets. Additional highlights include paid solar, quality custom construction, and ocean views from nearly every room. Located just a short golf cart ride to the Village of La Jolla’s restaurants, shops, and beaches, with convenient access to the I-5 freeway for travel throughout San Diego. A rare opportunity to own a view-focused coastal property in one of La Jolla’s most sought-after hillside location!!
