About This Home

Situated on a 6,300-square-foot lot, the home features 6 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms, and approximately 2,890 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space.

Multiple living areas provide flexibility and privacy while the main gathering spaces capture panoramic views stretching from Mission Bay to the Pacific. The spacious kitchen is appointed with abundant cabinetry, generous counter space, and a large center island with bar seating, creating the perfect hub for entertaining. A versatile loft offers additional living space ideal for a media room, home office, playroom, or guest retreat. The primary suite serves as a private sanctuary with picture windows framing the bay, skyline, and ocean views. Outdoor living is where this home truly excels. Multiple view decks provide front-row seats to spectacular sunsets, sparkling city lights, and panoramic coastal vistas, while the backyard offers a pool, spa, and multiple entertaining areas designed for year-round Southern California living. Owned, paid-off solar adds long-term value and energy efficiency. Ideally located just minutes from Pacific Beach, Mission Bay, La Jolla, downtown San Diego, world-class dining, shopping, and some of the area's finest beaches, this is a rare opportunity to own one of Pacific Beach's premier view properties offering exceptional flexibility, unforgettable views, and an incredible coastal lifestyle.
