Description

This property is no longer available to rent or to buy. This description is from December 12, 2023
Set privately behind a pedestrian entry gate and mature hedge in the heart of La Jolla's Muirlands neighborhood, discover this wonderfully luxurious and comfortable custom home. It has horizon ocean views, an abundantly tranquil backyard with outdoor kitchen and firepit, plus a guest/pool house containing one bedroom suite and a gym with an accordion-style glass wall that opens to the gorgeous pool & spa. The main house has soaring open beamed ceilings, a great room concept with a large kitchen island adjacent to both indoor & outdoor dining areas, and yet another accordion-style glass wall and picture windows that frame the verdant tree tops and horizon ocean vistas. A large media or living room with one of the two fireplaces opens through french doors to a spacious front patio and yard that enjoys a rare combination of southern exposure, Pacific Ocean and some distant evening lights views, all while remaining just as private as the backyard. Of the three bedrooms in the main house, two share a bath that is in addition to the nicely appointed powder room, and the primary bedroom has a large bathroom ensuite with dual vanities, a spacious steam shower and walk-in closet. Practical features such as a large storage room off the oversized garage, big laundry room (with dual washers/dryers) perfectly located adjacent to the garage, walk-in pantry and kitchen, and smart home features throughout are just a few conveniences not to be overlooked. Its appealing mid-century style and roofline is a nod to its original, timeless design, while a recent "down to the studs remodel" created a high quality, custom and modern living experience. The .43 acre lot backs up to a paper street enhancing the privacy and expansive feel, and the understated curb appeal on coveted Inspiration Drive adds a touch of prestige to this ideal La Jolla home, perfectly complementing its exceedingly attractive features!
