$19.6 Million La Jolla Compound Makes The Most Of Endless Pacific Sunsets

There’s nothing like views of the setting sun punctuating the ocean horizon. But that’s just one of the many attributes of a recently constructed compound sited on an acre of ocean bluff in San Diego County’s La Jolla Farms.

A gated and secured entrance at the street ensures privacy. The more than 7,500 square feet of living space is on a single level, and the list goes on.

Expanses of glass give a modern, open-air feel to the contemporary estate. A pop-up portion of the roof emphasizes the strong horizontal lines and bathes the interiors in light. The meticulously well-kept courtyard, swimming pool and spa add a resort vibe. Spots of lawn and plantings soften the appearance.

The open-plan great room provides ample space for lounging, dining, watching the big screen or enjoying the fireplace. A center island with bar seating for a half-dozen, a sink and range creates a buffer to the rest of the kitchen, outfitted with white counters, stainless-steel appliances and wood cabinetry.

The glass-sided great room looks both outward to the ocean and inland toward the courtyard pool. A wide walkway on the water side leads down through gardens to an observation deck with a fire pit.

Multi-use rooms ― one with a kitchenette ― can double as guest suites, a home gym or an art studio. Wood accents play well against the white, beige and gray tones used throughout the residence.

There are five bedrooms with slide-away glass walls, seven bathrooms and dual two-car garages on the property. A glass-cornered office nook looks out on the Pacific.
