Property description
First time on the market and a rare opportunity! This home is a "true gem" with breathtaking sit down panoramic white water ocean views, bay and city views from almost every room! This single level home with no steps, offers 4 bedrooms and 2.5 baths and a spacious 2,712 square feet on a flat .24 acre lot. Lovingly maintained over the years, the floor plan was perfectly designed. There are vaulted ceilings and large windows that bring in an abundance of natural light and two fireplaces to keep the rooms warm and cozy. There are several patios and decks encircling the home where you can walk out to enjoy the mesmerizing sunsets as it drops below the ocean skyline and later to watch the sparkling Sea World fireworks. Luscious landscaping including producing fruit trees that are perfect for your homemade lemonade to sip while you appreciate the majestic views. Being a single level home with a thoughtful floorplan and sit-down panoramic views in beautiful La Jolla Palisades, this is truly a home for a lifetime!
