What a remarkable find! Nestled west of I-5 in the prestigious and highly coveted Olde Solana Beach neighborhood, this rare and expansive estate sits on an impressive 28,700 sq. ft. lot. Enjoy breathtaking easterly views of sunrises and distant mountains, along with charming peek-a-boo ocean views from the front of the property. Step inside to soaring, wood-beamed vaulted ceilings on the upper level, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere filled with natural light. Originally remodeled in 2012, the home strikes a perfect balance between timeless charm and modern sophistication. The gourmet island kitchen is a chef’s dream, equipped with premium appliances and a cozy breakfast nook — an ideal space to savor your morning coffee or tea. A formal dining room offers sweeping views of the estate grounds, setting the stage for unforgettable dinner parties and celebrations.

Sustainable living meets resort-style luxury with fully owned solar panels and a solar-heated, saltwater pool featuring natural boulders, a water slide, spa, and outdoor bar area complete with pool bath. The beautifully landscaped grounds are a retreat of their own, with meandering pathways that lead to a gazebo, walking bridge, greenhouse, and garden ready for planting. Enjoy a bounty of fresh citrus from your private orchard, including lemon, lime, orange, tangelo, and tangerine trees. Ideally located near top-rated schools, Fletcher Cove Beach, Cardiff-by-the-Sea, the San Elijo Lagoon, shopping, dining, entertainment, and the train station — everything you need is just minutes away.
